The thought that developing our greenbelt and removing environmental rights (see Bill 23) in the face of extreme consequences from climate change is absolutely despicable. Scientists across the globe DO NOT disagree on these facts and it is entirely irresponsible and pathetic that a ‘leader’ would suggest moving backwards. The exact location and size of our greenbelt was decided on by scientists who looked at the ecosystems, ecology, and surrounding habitats to judge the best location. Removing a piece but adding a different piece defeats the purpose of this area.

You say you’re for Ontarians, but none of us want this. Building homes the way you are WILL NOT lower housing costs and instead is damaging every hope my generation and the ones after me have of seeing a bright future.

It is atrocious that the hands of the greedy have influenced our premier. Those in favour of this act are greedy themselves. They refuse to face scientific evidence, refuse to acknowledge indigenous rights, refuse to consider future generations and have shown the public that the average Ontarian means nothing.

Way to go.
Sincerely,
A young biologist who has lost hope in her province.
