The proposed uses of the Greenbelt will hurt farmers and negatively impact local produce as well as dramatically dent Canada's access to nature.

The Greenbelt was created as a means to protect local business, nature and help our country and province by supporting the people who make Ontario what it is. Supporting the people who grow much of our food and produce.

By utilizing the Greenbelt for monetary and frankly predatory industry gains is counterproductive. Small business, wild nature and farmers have already suffered enough from funding cuts, policy squeezes, pandemic impact and wage freezes - don't take away their only means of livelihood. We'll find somewhere else to build the homes Ontario needs. But not there. Not there.

To be perfectly honest I don't trust the conservative government nor the potential future conservative governments that Ontario may have, to follow through on its promises to both return land or to use the land for its
initial projected purpose.
