Building in the green belt does not solve the housing issues today.
I am a young conservative voter who has voted in the last 3 elections. I will no longer be voting conservative after hearing about the green belt, highway 413 and the state of our hospitals

Don’t develop the green belt. It’s so ecologically important, paving over it would be disastrous. The gta is large enough and there are tons of empty lots that can be turned into homes.

I think this is a bad idea and am against the proposal. Yes we need more housing and you've been given recommendations that can do this without going into the greenbelt. We're already trying to combat the effects of climate change, don't make it worse simply to make profit for corporations.

Please reread your own task force’s report it states that development in the green belt isn’t needed no would make a significant impact in getting us more houses.
Why bother with a report if you were just going to ignore it and waste tax payer dollars on it?

This plan is an ecological disaster that will do nothing to ameliorate the housing crisis. We need changes to density and an end to single family housing zoning. By paving the greenbelt we open residents to flooding and we are going to cripple our food production during a period of climate change.

This is an embarrassment. Public land should serve the public not politicians political buddies.
Where the guarantee this land/housing will benefit the people
Where the guarantee they wont build large unaffordable (for most) homes and just rent them out at extremely high rates.

I am opposed to development on the greenbelt. One farmland and natural area have been developed there is no way to get that land back. The loss of vital farm land, wetlands, and other environmentally sensitive areas will negatively impact Ontario for ever.

Doug ford you promised your voters this was off the table. This is not needed. We can create more housing without destroying the greenbelt. Listen to your voters. Stop giving money to your friends
Very disappointed with this plan. The green belt belongs to the people of Ontario . It does not belong to the government . I will vote against theFord government in the next election.
This proposal is an embarrassment. It is a detriment to the green belt, the province, the environment, and the people. Our world is in dire shape. We need to leave our protected land as is ( or increase it’s size).

This proposal is an absolute sham and borderline criminal. It is particularly insulting as it stands to enrich developpers with NO GUARANTEE of benefits to the public. PUBLIC LAND SHOULD SERVE THE PUBLIC. If it is to be developped, it should be guaranteed community housing / afforbable housing.

I question the density of housing that will be built on this land. Large properties with detached homes for the wealthy are not worth sacrificing the greenbelt for and will do little to ease the housing crises which is affecting those with less means.

Disgusting and criminal. This is a cash grab for wealthy developers. Sacrificing our environment to make the rich richer. This will not solve the housing crisis. We need to increase density and stop building single detached homes.
