Business and Industry should not have priority over the environment. The Greenbelt should remain protected, our lakes and our water supply should also be maintained and protected. The honourable premier has no right to threaten the envionrmental health of Ontario and the safety of Ontario’s water. Ontario is known for its lush for forests, lakes, and green zones and they should remain that way; Green. Developers have no right to the Greenbelt or to any other natural area or protected area in Ontario. Hands off my Greenbelt, my water, hands off my ontario. The health of the environment represents the health of the province, the country, and the world. Without protecting and maintaining the quality of the green zones and natural habitats we have left, there is no point investing in developing projects or industry as life will not exist without the environment. At the rate climate change is accelerating, this sort of deal is not what we need. We need effective climate change policy not a leader who would rather develop the Greenbelt instead of protect it. Not to mention, I do recall our premier stating that he will leave the Greenbelt alone after it was discovered that he was making under the table deals to develop the Greenbelt.
