I've lived in both the big city and rural communities in Ontario. This proposed legislation scares me a lot. Our land, communities and resources are being used to fund Ford's friends. So many things have become unaffordable for ordinary Canadians. And now apparently new houses for rich investors trumps our ability to feed ourselves. Farmland is a very limited resource in Canada and much of it already sits under big cities like Hamilton and Toronto. This proposal makes it impossible for small rural communities to plan a future in line with community goals. Once our farmland is paved over that's it. Moving north is moving into marginal lands and plant hardiness zones that are ill suited to growing food.

I've talked to a lot of people about this and many of us are scared for the future, scared for our communities and scared for future generations. At least we'll have electric cars!! If we can afford them.
