The Green Belt is precious and ecologically valuable and must be preserved for future generations. Its development was a triumph. Land is used so inefficiently in Southwestern Ontario. Instead of amending the Greenbelt Area boundaries, there are many innovative alternative options on the table to ameliorate the housing crisis:
(1) Change development regulations and require denser development outside of the Greenbelt
(2) Build the "missing middle" - low-rise multi-unit housing, like is so prevalent in Europe
(3) Mandate blind bidding so that housing prices aren't artificially inflated by unscrupulous realtors
