Good Morning, I am a…

Good Morning,

I am a resident of York Region, and unfortunately for Doug Ford, I am also the daughter of a midwife in Ontario. This proposal of re-designating the Greenbelt, along with a loose promise of re-addition of Greenbelt in the future is inherently wrong, misleading, and fundamentally designed to create a Trojan Horse to further erode the public and earth-bound right of natural land. May I point out that this is Stolen Land. May I point out the disaster of the 407 and the promises that were not fulfilled, and the apathy that has been projected onto our community about how it cannot be figured out now that the train is rolling. May I point out that the developers came to him with this idea and that this government may be at the mercy of their lack of critical thinking due to their pockets being lined by private interest. May I point out that the value of natural land is not measured in dollars and you can never go back from where this goes. May I point out that the dismal turnout of voters at the last election was to give this government control over a promise of NEVER TOUCHING THE GREENBELT. Finally, may I point out that there are two documents to submit comments to here, which is confusing and obviously designed to distribute public pressure to look less intense while probably being the purpose. You know exactly what I am saying. Don't think that you will get away with this because people need parks near their white picket fences. No one needs fences. We need community. We can density cities and make them great. We have enough parks. The earth is not our playground. The earth is dying from greed, ignorance, and disruption. You cannot go back from this planned disaster and if it takes me, rallying the people who did not vote for this government then so be it. We will not let you win. Shame. Shame on us all if this passes in 13 days. We do not even begin to understand the implications, but we do know we have the power and will not see this amendment done. This is a slippery slope. This is the end of us having a memory of the Earth as it was. This is wrong. Deep down. We all know it. Thank you for waking up the fight in me. Protests are coming. Online activism is coming. The power to the people is coming. Don't threaten me with a good time.

Sincerely,

A daughter of the Earth
