Paving over prime farmland on the Greenbelt is neither necessary nor wise and your government is deceiving people saying it is. This is simply to enrich your already wealthy developer backers. The right was forward is intensification within our urban boundaries as was suggested in the recent study by the Housing Affordability Task Force. This would increase the vibrancy of our urban centres and allow us to more than accommodate the arrival of new residents. New York City is several times more dense than Toronto; there is it accepted and embraced. With food production coming under pressure and biodiversity/ecosystems declining due to climate change, paving over the Greenbelt is unbelievably short sited. Please don't do this. Thankyou for your attention.
