Based on a metrolinx project I was involved in about 5 years ago, the province had enough land to build houses for the next 50 years without touching the greenbelt. What's changed? The government in power.
We need to build smarter, not continue the sprawl. We need family sized condos that get young families into the market. We need densification, but not massive buildings that tower over the neighbour'shomes to avoid the nimby problem. Design and build 3 or 4 units that fit into neighborhoods. Large rental or condo buildings should have a percentage geared to income. Waiting more than 5 years for an affordable place to rent is ridiculous.
Opening up the greenbelt only benefits a select few.
