RE ERO 019-6216 (Changes to Greenbelt)
After reviewing the maps and documents, I would like to register my objection to these proposed changes. The loss of environmentally sensitive and important land being proposed for development is in no way equally offset by the additional protected lands being offered in return.
While the province faces many challenges up ahead in providing housing, there are numerous steps that can be taken (such as removing zoning restrictions in areas that can have more density) before giving up land that was intended to be protected and protective of Ontario's agricultural sector and conservation efforts (including flood migitation, pollution etc).
These changes are unnecessary, set a dangerous precedent, and will not solve Ontario's housing issues.
