Yes. Kawartha Lakes is a government unit and not a place.

I'm of course open to other suggestions. It might be an interesting
project to rank cities or towns by something similar to "prominence"
for mountains - some measure of how populated a place is compared to
its surroundings. But Owen Sound just doesn't look like a major
destination in southern Ontario to me.
