All of what is now called Green Lane was a two lane gravel road and the section from Yonge St. to Bathurst St. was called Poplar Bank Sideroad. Now it is all a busy four lane highway except for the last stretch of the same road extending from Bathurst St. to Dufferin St. This single concession of unpaved road still carries its old name of Miller’s Sideroad.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Frank Stuart Miller, (May 14, 1927 – July 21, 2000) was a Canadian politician, who served as the 19th Premier of Ontario for four months in 1985. He was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario in 1971 as a Progressive Conservative member of the central Ontario riding of Muskoka. He served in the cabinet of Premier Bill Davis in several portfolios including Minister of Health and Minister of Natural Resources. He was also served five years as the Treasurer of Ontario. When Davis resigned in 1984 he vied for the leadership of the party and won over a slate of three other candidates. In February, 1985 he formed a cabinet of 33 ministers which was the largest cabinet in Ontario's history. Miller quickly called an election which was held on May 2. His party lost 18 seats but still held the most seats with 52. He formed a minority government which lasted less than two months when the Liberals under David Peterson and the New Democrats led by Bob Rae formed an unofficial coalition and defeated the government on a confidence motion on June 26. Initially Miller stayed on as leader of the opposition and vowed to stay on but resigned as leader shortly after. After retirement from provincial politics he moved back to Muskoka where he became chairman of the District of Muskoka. He died in 2000.
