ABSOLUTELY NOT. Ford is once again going back on an election promise. It's not about housing, it's about making money for developers clamoring even while their coffers are bulging. There's housing available now, but only a small percentage of people can afford it. There's space in golf courses, but Ford's buddies won't allow that to be used. You want to solve the housing crisis? Make housing more accessible, legislate against owning multiple properties, legislate against corporations buying up houses as part of their portfolio. And that's not even going into the harmful environmental effects. Look at what has been happening with weather patterns in the past few years. Ontario has been largely unaffected because we have natural defenses. The Greenbelt is part of that. There's a reason it's been protected all these years, and it's NOT because we think it's pretty! You'd think someone who likes to go to the cottage as much as Ford would understand that nature is worth preserving. It's revolting that people who only think about their wallets are steamrolling over all of us. This needs to STOP.
