Bill 23 is not necessary to meet the needs for new housing as we have capacity within existing urban boundaries sufficient for our needs.

This Bill clearly disregards the groundswell of public opinion about saving farmland and greenbelt areas. Ford has shown his true political colours...promising to safeguard greenbelt lands, then making them available to developers who conveniently bought those lands just weeks before his announcement.

Our farmland is not a political tool. We must find ways to upgrade and utilize those urban lands already formed into cities so that we can welcome newcomers, create work, live, play spaces that are not dependent upon cars.

The government must not go forward with Bill 23.
