None of these townships remain as political units due to amalgamation, with Bosanquet joining Forest in forming Lambton Shores (along with the villages of Arkona, Thedford, and Grand Bend).

In more recent years the town has become a dormitory community for the city of Sarnia (and to a lesser extent London, Ontario).
