Do NOT remove density…

Do NOT remove density targets! All this does is encourages speculator, land developer sprawl. This is bad environmental policy, this is bad housing policy. This does not create communities. It creates sprawl. We need LESS suburban sprawl. We need MORE creative density in existing cities and municipalities.

It is also inappropriate to give the Housing Minister increased powers to override other provincial planning policies - we have policies for a reason. This government’s increasing infatuation with destroying the environment is going to create an unliveable province for future generations.

Municipalities should not be given increased powers to expand into farmland without adhering to the current processes.
