I’m opposed to the proposed amendments to the greenbelt for several reasons. 1. The Greenbelt holds some of the most fertile soil. Once we lose that topsoil it is very difficult to build it back 2. It will cause the Destruction of significant wetlands 3. It will effect water quantity/quality 4.

I vigorously oppose the removal from the Greenbelt of 15 areas of land totalling over 7000 acres. This is a broken promise not to touch the Greenbelt system. The Government’s Housing Affordability Task Force found there are plenty of places to build homes without destroying the Greenbelt.

I find this decision to be is short sighted and irresponsible. Green belt in Durham region protects the land and prevent flooding, etc so I’m outraged that thi government is releasing parts of the greenbelt for development.
You are risking the lives and land of your children in Durham region.

Seems like a money grab for friends of the Premiere. Not to metion the negative impacts on the water source for south Ontario. Guess the PCs think this is their last term in office and its time to start grabbing all they can.
I strongly oppose the decision to make amendments to the Greenbelt Plan as it currently stands. While the Province is saying this land swap is needed in order to encourage and build enough homes for Ontario's growing population, further efforts could be made to densify existing municipalities.

The promise in the last election to leave the Greenbelt alone, was obviously an election promise only. If Ford is a man of his word, he needs to come up with another solution to bring AFFORDABLE housing, to this province. Farm lands need to be protected as well.

This bill is shortsighted, destructive, and a mistake. The fact that a (select) few benefit while the rest of us bear the cost is more than upsetting. This negatively affects so many people: municipalities, the middle and working classes, Indigenous peoples...

I am appalled that The Greenbelt is being considered for development when there are so many other more efficient and sustainable ways to build more housing. There are already sites in the GTHA that would be suitable.

I am horrified by this proposal which is a shocking departure from the governments promise to maintain Greenbelt lands. Further it REEKS of corruption and is deserving of an immediate ethics inquiry regarding recent purchases of the land by developers
Please stop the development planned for the Greenbelt. The impact this will have on the environmental health through the loss of the lands, wildlife, and plants in these areas will be irreversible.

I am extremely concerned about Doug Ford revoking his promises to not touch The Greenbelt. It was established for many reasons, including flood mitigation, preservation of drinking water for the GTA and protection of critical habitat for many species at risk.

Please explain how Bill 23 is being introduced when we were provided assurances on numerous occasions by Doug Ford's government that the Greenbelt and Oro Moraine would be preserved for future generations.
I cannot vote for a party that does not fulfill its promises.
