During the last provincial election campaign, there was absolutely no mention of the current attacks on the Greenbelt by the Ford government. This Bill, which threatens to remove 15 portions of protected greenbelt lands, will cause drastic and harmful permanent damage to our environment, our agricultural sectors and our municipal governments across Ontario. Bill 23 is an attack on our wetlands, our natural heritage, our forests, our wildlife and biodiversity, our farmland, and our municipal governance and conservation authorities. How much worse can it get? Bill 23 must be repealed. Our Greenbelt must be protected in its current state, our Conservation Authorities must retain their mandates and their protected lands.

The development proposed by this Greenbelt bill is inappropriate, builds mansions on green spaces,
destroys our wetlands, destroys our farmlands, and is an assault to our so-called democracy in Ontario, and makes us, the taxpayers, pay for the developers developments!
There is no shortage of developable land in Ontario. From CELA "the GTHA has 88,000 acres of already designated new (or greenfield) development lands within the existing settlement area boundaries that would meet the region's entire projected housing demands for the next 30 years." To 2051.

Listen to the People - do not destroy Southern Ontario, it belongs to us.
