The government of the City of Vaughan has been plagued by politicking and many instances of corruption tied in with the interests of developers and real estate speculation. Vaughan has been called the City of the Rich and Infamous by the media. Over the last decade, virtually all Vaughan communities have repeatedly called for greater transparency of politicians and the enforcement of penalties on noncompliant politicians and bureaucrats who have abused the system.
