Good day:

My comments are as follows:

Premier Ford promised his government wouldn’t touch the Greenbelt
· A report prepared by government-hired consultants said Greenbelt land was not needed to build needed housing.
· Building on unserviced Greenbelt land will not solve the unaffordable housing problem.
· Greenbelt land was designated after significant scientific studies and extensive public consultation and cannot just be whittled away without significant justification and extensive public consultation.
· Adding already protected river valleys to the plan cannot be used to justify removals.
· Neither can adding land in the Paris Galt Moraine, especially when no justification has been given for why these lands were chosen.
· Altogether the government should be protecting the existing Greenbelt and adding to it, not deleting from it.
