I strongly support the return of these lands to the Greenbelt. As evidenced in several studies and reports, there is ample land located outside of the Greenbelt to meet the need for new housing in Ontario. Further, it is unconscionable that a developer would obtain the right to build on this previously protected land, and then opt to sell it once it was available for development. It is important to send a firm message to this and all developers that Greenbelt lands are not items for speculation, to be sold once restrictions on them have been removed. I add my voice to the chorus of those calling for this land to have its Greenbelt designation reinstated, and for it to be protected in perpetuity as was the original intent of the Greenbelt's creation.
