I oppose the removal of lands in the Greenbelt as per my comments under ero 6216.

I support the addition of the Paris Galt moraine lands in order to enhance the protection it provides to farmland and groundwater in Brant and Wellington counties and Waterloo Region. As previously reported on Mar 30, 2022 by The Expositor (Brantford) the government has previously "received close to 7,000 comments during the consultation process and the feedback overwhelmingly supports Greenbelt expansion.

“No other government policy consultation in the last four years has had such a robust response,” said Mary-Lou Knechtel, of the Brant Land Trust. “It speaks to the importance that Ontarians continue to place on the environment and protecting the drinking water and local farms that sustain our communities."
