This is absolutely insane. This will not help with our housing dilemma unless you mandate that the builders build affordable housing and forfeit their profits. This is so screwed up and blatant back scratching. I’m embarrassed I voted PC and will likely not ever again. Read more

I am an ontarian who is moving to the GTA. Our Green spaces are precious, the greenbelt houses valuable wetland and forests that are home to diverse ecosystems. Yes there is a housing shortage but we do not need more car dependent suburbs full of single family dwellings. Read more

The Greenbelt cannot be replaced. It is an extremely important natural resource, and is home to a valuable ecosystem. Please consider other solutions to solve the space problem. Developing the greenbelt will have long-lasting and far-reaching devastating consequences. Read more
