The Greenbelt is needed for the security our cities and towns. It is essential to prevent catastrophic flooding and maintain healthy ecosystems in southern Ontario. Incursions into the Greenbelt should be minimized, particularly during a period of rapid climate change likely to be accompanied by unpredictable and severe weather events. Moreover, it is far more tax efficient to increase the density of our cities and towns, rather than to encourage sprawl, which is unsustainable and an undue burden on residents of higher density, more productive regions.
I do not support building houses within the Greenbelt.
