Urban sprawl is already widespread in Ontario and the infrastructure has not kept up. This plan removes green space for communities living in these regions, adds to urban sprawl, and does not support long term population growth due to the lack of infrastructure and green space.

The solution to housing in Ontario is not to take over Green space. Green space is an important ecological feature of Ontario supporting farmers, towns and cities as well as ecological diversity that the province needs to survive.

I do not support removing the protection act for the Greenbelt. As a young adult, this will destroy my generation's future as Doug Ford seems determined to do so.

As an Ontario citizen who voted for Doug ford, I am so upset that he is violating his promises and choosing to develop land in the Green Belt. Doug you are a power hungry individual who cares more about his political and lobbyist network than his constituents.

I am completely against this amendment. Ford promised that he would never build on the Greenbelt and now that is exactly what he is talking.about doing. This amendment would not create more affordable housing it will simply create more housing for the rich.

This is nothing short of corruption. It is short sighted and the only people who benefit are the developers who have Doug in their pocket.
Stop the sprawl!
I am very concerned that this government is trying to take protected lands from the greenbelt. These are sensitive lands that house many endangered species. It is also farmland that we need to grow food so we can eat. We do not need more massive houses on massive tracts of land.

We need the green belt to be left unchanged, so that we can maintain the agricultural land. We need to be able to grow food , while climate change is removing arable land from production everywhere. We need to maintain our aquifers so that we have clean water.

We don’t need a bunch of mansions on the green belt to solve our housing crisis. The economy won’t benefit much either by developing in arable land or destroying one of the green wildlife conservations in Ontario left.

After promising to not develop the Greenbelt, you have reneged on this promise. Green space, biodiversity and agriculture are incredibly important to all Ontario residents. For the sake of our children, I am begging you to not develop the Greenbelt.

This plan is heinous. Picking away at the greenbelt will accomplish nothing apart from getting contractor “friends” paid. Housing demand will continue to be a problem so long as housing DISTRIBUTION remains a problem.

I urge the Premier to:
-withdraw the plan to remove lands from the Greenbelt;
-get on with a meaningful Greenbelt expansion that reflects public input - repeatedly promised but never delivered by the Ford government;

This is a misuse of provincial funds. We should be focusing on actual crisis that our communities are facing at hand instead of ruining the environment and only providing financial benefit to wealthy folks.

This is absolutely disgusting and atrocious. Implementing a highway on the only piece of greenery left in the GTA? Also just so happens to benefit all of dougs sponsors, which he thinks we are too stupid enough to notice.
