The Green Belt is incredibly important and should not be open for development. Doug Ford is breaking his previous promise with this proposal. What we need to focus on are the collapse of our health care system, solving the housing crisis and the situation in our schools.

This is not what the people of Toronto were promised. We have to protect and conserve our land. We dont need more unaffordable houses. We need Ford to help fix the housing crisis not add to it. Why isn't there more regular apartments being built for low income households? Read more

This is a horrible idea and goes against everything Doug Ford promised. That he would never open the greenbelt to development. AND taking away the conservation authority's power to control building on flood planes? Seriously! This makes no sense. Low income housing is what is needed! Not mansions. Read more

I have lived in the greenbelt my entire life. It was a point of pride that Ontario had put aside this important ecological area to protect the environment, the wildlife and future generations. How can you suggest developing our green spaces while entire buildings sit empty in our city centers? Read more

Please do not touch the Greenbelt. The land is important to Ontarians- we have told this government before we do not want you to touch it. Find another way- use old buildings and warehouses to refurbish into low income housing. Also, we don’t want a new highway either.

I am so thankful that this is available for comment. In no way shape or form do I agree with what the government of Ontario, under the leadership of Doug Ford is trying to do with our protected lands. We cannot let this proposal go forward. Read more

This is not what the people need. We do not need more mansions or overpriced condos that no one can afford go live in along the Greenbelt. This is not what we are asking for. This will destroy a cherished piece of Canada if Doug Ford is successful with moving this forward. Read more

The Ministry and Doug Ford need to uphold the promise that the Greenbelt would not be developed. The housing crisis cannot be solved by allowing developers access to conservation areas. We need to look at better solutions, including repurposing unused and underused buildings in major city areas. Read more
