Municipal Elections: Ontario 2022

How did we end up with regularly scheduled province-wide municipal elections in Ontario?

Wikipedia notes the 2016 Municipal Elections Modernization Act, from the days of the Wynne government, and refers us to the source text of then-Bill 181:

Was this a wise choice to make? Granted that it provides some certainties of scheduling, some degree of convenience.
