For one, The Greenbelt should be considered a matter of national security. We should not squander the best farming land that we have in Canada. With global supply chains increasingly becoming strained, it could be a mistake to remove this productive land from our dwindling supply. Read more

Dear Environmental Registry Committee, As a concerned Ontario resident, I am extremely concerned about the proposed Highway 413. People don't need or want this highway. The money should be spent on services that the public actually needs instead, such as healthcare. Read more

Our family strenuously objects to Bill 23 and all suggested new development of protected Greenbelt lands. We also do not want to have the province to have powers to meddle in the municipal plans to over-ride locally elected representatives who want to preserve the Greenbelt lands. Read more

This a bone head plan which will only benefit developers. This action and the proposed Bradford bypass are detrimental to the environment. Besides Ford promised during the last election not to touch the Greenbelt. This was the same as the buck a beer pledge.

I am an Ontario resident and this move is not only sneaky it is in direct conflict with our environmental goals for Canada. I support housing priorities. It CANNOT come at the cost of environmental protection. I strongly oppose this bill 23 and call for it to be rescinded.
