I strongly disagree with the proposal's direction to allow the conversion farmland, prime or otherwise, into residential land. Ontario's urban centres would be much better served through densification. This would provide a greater opportunity for affordable housing near municipal services that such households require. This scheme has already been tried and tested throughout the world. Dense urban centres are much more productive, desirable, and environmentally beneficial than suburban sprawl, all research and planning principles agree on this.

The only motivation for the business as usual case of building the largest homes possible is greed and a lack of imagination. Have some courage and pursue what is truly in the public's best interest.
