Comment
I disagree with any effort to reduce the protection of Greenbelt land as made possible in Bill 66. The protection for these areas (and others, such as Algonquin Park) has been hardwon. Much of the land is used for farming; I do think we need farms! Farmers tend to use the most fertile land. It is obvious counter-productive to have more and more of this valuable land given over to endless acres of low density housing. Suddenly your food has to be transported from farther away resulting in more pollution. What a vicious circle is started when some people start thinking that progress is measured by building houses.
