New housing should not come at the expense of losing valuable farmland in the Greenbelt. Urban sprawl does not help the environment and puts strain on infrastructure, thereby costumg taxpayers and the government more money. Far better would be to build up, not out, in existing urban and suburban municipalities.
I have had to explain to students that the current government of Ontario made deals to build into farmland, and many have written letters to the Premier and Environment Minister. If children know this is wrong, why does the government think it's right?
