This is outrageous in the face of the consequences of climate change that our province (tornadoes, forest fires, disastrous storms), country (forest fires, hurricanes), and world is enduring. This was a PROMISE made for this government to be elected on. Read more

For our future generation we need more Green Protected Space not less for housing. More GTA housing will ad to the horrific transportation problems that already exist. At the very least use the Pickering Airport lands instead of water sheds, local forests and moraines. This is a forever mistake

I strongly do not agree with the proposed changes outlined in the amendments of the greenbelt plan. There are many areas in these cities where redevelopment of unused/underused areas is long overdue and more relevant than new development that involves taking away green spaces. Read more

Any development expansion into the Greenbelt should absolutely NOT occur. Building homes into the Greenbelt would destroy valuable and irreplaceable wildlife ecosystems. You can not simply destroy these ecosystems and rebuild them somewhere else. Read more

We need to preserve and expand the Greenbelt in Ontario, beyond the ecological benefits, it serves to support Ontarians in connecting with accessible green space that would otherwise not exist! I urge the Ministry to please retain and expand the Greenbelt! Read more

This is a terrible idea. The greenbelt and destroying it will bring us nothing but harm in the long run. For the short term maybe it seems like a good idea, but to prosper and ensure Ontario thrives in the long run you have to think past campaign season. Read more

I am writing to express my opposition to the proposed amendments to the Greenbelt Plan. The Greenbelt is a critical piece of natural infrastructure that provides clean water, clean air, mitigates flooding risk, contains urban sprawl, and generates billions in economic impact every year. Read more

We would like to know if developers/ home builders already own the sections of land being removed from the greenbelt and , if so, the names of company and / or owner should be published. In other words who is going to benefit financially from these changes. Read more
