This is absolutely absurd. We need to stop developing in our protected greenspaces. Where will the wildlife go? How out of touch do you have to be to be removing protected land when we need to protect the environment and make drastic changes to prevent further degradation of the environment. Read more

Protect our farmland. Toronto needs to build up in a sustainable manner. Further sprawl will only make our traffic congestion worse and transit less worthwhile. Farms and wild areas are crucial for food and water security. If we want to support our population growth our food needs must be met. Read more

I would demand you honor the city of Hamilton decision. Last year in November both council and community overwhelmingly voted to not expand the urban boundary. Now the ontario government is trying to force us to expand. And into the greenbelt no less. Read more

Please don’t destroy our green belt; we can grow our communities in other ways…and if you do destroy our green belt can you at least make housing affordable for our vulnerable people like adults with disabilities; low income seniors and our homeless

I DO NOT support building 7000+ plots of housing on Greenbelt. The ecosystem of Ontario’s greenbelt MUST be protected and a different solution must be met for providing affordable housing in Toronto. This is not the way. We must protect the Greenbelt.
