The Green Belt is sacrosanct. It is so important for our future generations to leave this land as is. I was born and raised in Toronto. It has been disheartening at times to see how my city and surrounding areas have changed. I remember when there was mostly farm land north of hwy 7. I drive to Newmarket and see how Richmond Hill and Thornhill and other small towns have changed so much. The same applies east and west of the city. Toronto itself has lost a great deal of it's charm by the tearing down of old buildings to be replaced by chrome and glass. City planners really did drop the ball with the development of our lakefront. Chicago has done such a much better job with theirs.
I have grandchildren. I want them to look back on the decisions the Ford government are making now (after promising they wouldn't) and be grateful for the Turn Around I hope to see on Ford's decision to allow developers to get their way. Many millions of Ontarians deserve that.
