"More Homes Built Faster" on the ecologically sensitive Oak Ridges Moraine is a travesty of urban planning. This Act should be dead in the water because it violates the very principles of the Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan and will result in irreparable damage to vital natural systems.

I urge Premier Ford to:

Follow the advice of the government’s own Ontario Affordable Housing Task Force and focus efforts on developing affordable housing on lands that have already been designated for development and have the necessary infrastructure in place. As the Housing Task Force noted, there is plenty of land within urban areas ready for development.

Stop promoting urban sprawl with unaffordable, inefficient McMansions that do nothing to address the housing crisis and, in fact, pander to salivating developers.
