Thank you for the opportunity to comment. There is already overwhelming opposition to this proposal, and I agree with the majority of people who want to see the greenbelt kept intact. The recommendation for the Hamilton area is particularly poor. As Premier Ford stated today, we have a housing crisis - but that crisis was plain to see when he promised not to touch the greenbelt, clearly a lie. Both the Premier and the Housing Minister know perfectly well that more than enough land exists within urban boundaries to satisfy the number of new homes needed. It's another falsehood to suggest that with so many newcomers to Canada, the greenbelt developments will provide homes for them. Whatever is built would be vastly beyond the ability of newcomers to pay. Protect our watersheds, forests and farmlands, please don't destroy them.
