The "Woodside National Historic Park (Ont.)", a national historic site managed by Parks Canada, is named after the designation first given by William Lyon Mackenzie King, a former Prime Minister of Canada, to the house where he lived as a teenager and which is now an historic site; the name was later given to the actually inhabited Woodside.

OBS

Nom d'une agglomération, «Woodside», donc d'un lieu habité. Le «lieu historique national Woodside (Ont.)», un lieu historique national géré par Parcs Canada, est nommé d'après le nom qu'avait d'abord donné William Lyon Mackenzie King, premier ministre du Canada de 1926 à 1948, à la maison où il a passé son adolescence, ce qui explique le nom en apposition dans le toponyme du nom de lieu historique national qu'est devenu l'emplacement par la suite; le nom a plus tard été donné au Woodside actuellement habité.

OBS

Coordonnées : 43°59' 80°01' (Ontario).

OBS

Au Canada (sauf deux exceptions au 31 décembre 1995), le nom d'un lieu habité n'a qu'une forme en français et en anglais, celle consignée au Répertoire de la province ou du territoire et qui tient de l'Acte d'incorporation de l'entité.
