Leave the Greenbelt alone.
The people of Ontario have made that clear for a long time that they want it left as is. Perhaps the government should listen?
You can build more housing without carving up the Greenbelt. If you want to add more lands to the greenbelt that would be great but don't take any away.
It seems most of the maps show natural heritage. We need to preserve natural heritage to slow the loss of biodiversity. What quality of life will we have if this government keeps minimizing the importance of the environment and agricultural land?
Houses are important yes but so is the ability of farmers to feed the people and so are the ecosystem services our natural areas provide.
Build more houses by increasing density in urban areas.
