Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, hiking in the greenbelt has been a source of fresh air, exercise, and has rejuvenated my mental health as well as the mental health of others. These areas support important diverse habitats in Canada and help mitigate stress in surrounding communities from climate change and urban development. The Greenbelt provides clean air, fresh water, local food, and accessible green space. Please consider creating the largest possible expansion of the greenbelt in order to enhance and expand our ecological corridors and protect them from industry, urban development, infrastructure and agriculture.
