The Greenbelt should be protected and a need for housing (and massive profit for developers) is not a good enough reason to open it up to development. Future generations will need farmland and greenspace, not endless sprawl.

What are you doing?! We're in a climate crisis that will not get better. All we can do is make sure it doesn't get much worse. Destroying the greenbelt will make it much worse. And maybe for the older folks in the PC party, that doesn't matter.

Please do not develop the Greenbelt.
There are better ways to add more housing, and it is important to protect the natural places we have left in Ontario for our health and the health of our environment.
This plan is something I absolutely disagree with. Although housing is a major issue in this province destroying our protected green spaces is not the way to accomplish this. Allowing for higher density housing in areas to reduce sprawl and creat more vibrant communities is the way forward.
We need farm land. We need wetlands. We have almost no forested land west of the GTA left. We don't need more rich developers.
Yes, they want to bulldoze farms because it's cheap.

Hi there, I oppose this bill as we don't need to develop the Greenbelts! They are protected by the Greenbelt Act and should remain so to conserve the environment in Southern Ontario.

Stop destroying the wildlife and removing trees that are essential to cleaning our air. Have you not seen the smog over Hamilton and the surrounding area when viewing from the top of the escarpment? It's disgusting and will only get worse if you destroy what little forest area is left.

The desperation of our housing crisis is not an excuse to destroy conservation land. The Ontario government is failing young people and future generations if they sacrifice important protect wildlands for the profit of greedy, unscrupulous developers under the guise of a housing initiative.

Please do not do this, this will have a negative impact for years to come. There are so many cities that already have buildings that could be fixed up or some that could be bulldozed and build units for people to live in. There is other options.

I am writing to express my opposition to Bill 23 and associated policy proposals that would weaken environmental protections and undermine public involvement in land use planning and decision-making.
I am particularly concerned about the:

The green belt is an essential part of Ontario and MUST be preserved.
Wildlife and flora need their space to provide a safe ecosystem.
Humans need the green belt too- no development should be allowed on that property at all.
I am extremely opposed to allowing development in the green belt. The conservation authorities and the green belt provide important protection against flooding protection.

I strongly oppose the development and destruction of the Greenbelt. If housing is needed, work to make existing housing more affordable. Encourage generational and multi-family living.
