I agree we need to increase our efforts to build housing including expanding the land available to do so.... however, we cannot build or develop areas suited to growing food crops or grazing lands that are close to large urban centres.

For example, the current government's plan to open up the Duffin Rouge Agricultural Preserve is absolutely wrong . That land is the best farmland in Canada ... it must be protected from development.

Furthermore, the DRAP borders Rouge Urban Park and is a perfect buffer to protect that important jewel we have right inside the GTA.

There are plenty of lots and availalble open areas within the GTA that are already close to required utilities to enable and support housing builds.

Thank you.
