The greenbelt unequivocally cannot be opened for development.
The role of the greenbelt is to stop sprawl and protect land. The story that we need to create housing in the greenbelt is false. Housing can be created more efficiently elsewhere and in area’s where people actually want to live – i.e. closer to transit, infrastructure and density.

Building in the greenbelt is totally misguided. It results in less houses not more. Shame on you for promoting this as a solution for increasing housing. The idea is so incredibly stupid and short sighted. Your plans would utterly destroy the certainty of permanent protection that is vital to the functioning of the Greenbelt as a whole.

Reversing your election promise that there will be no development in the greenbelt creates mistrust in your government. This is a duplicitous action that is unacceptable to the people of Ontario. Is this what you really want to be the legacy action of Ontario’s PC’s?.
