Our current protections have been decades in the making and have undergone extensive public consultation. It becomes infinitely apparent that the move by this government to open up our Greenbelt to development panders to development corporations and wealthy landowners who feel they are entitled to more than the current legislation allows.

Believe me when I state, unequivocally, that any party responsible for such an unscientific and shortsighted plan will pay dearly at the polls for years to come. The province is watching. Do the right thing.
