Leave it alone! There are other areas to build on. Start re-zoning industrial areas in the GTA for parks and condo towers.
None of this 50,000 to 1.5 million homes will work without continuing to expand transit, hospitals, electricity and other resources.

The greenbelt is a critical part of Southern Ontarios wildlife. It is one of the few remaining areas of land that is permanently protected. We MUST start thinking of the future generations that have to live on the planet.

There is a lot of space in cities already, build up not out. We can never get this land back if it is built over. It is already terrible traveling in the area, improve what we are already using
The decision to use greenbelt land for new developments is a victim of unoriginal thought. Typically decisions can await another party to take power and reverse.

I am a citizen of Canada and a resident of Ontario since childhood. I DO NOT support any proposed amendments to the Greenbelt Plan in the “More homes built Faster” plan.

It is a huge mistake to take the environment for granted. So not build on the greenbelt. Our future generations need greenspace and farmland, not rich politicians taking bribes and getting richer.
My largest concerns can be summarized in the following list:
1. The Greenbelt is an excellent piece of legislation preventing
urban sprawl and preserving biodiverse nature areas surrounding very
large and developed urban centers. A critical part of its purpose is

I really deeply disagree with this proposal due to the fact that it includes a reduction to the designated greenbelt areas. Ontario has always prided itself on it's greenbelt space.

Permanent protection of the green belt was put in place for a reason. To protect one of Ontarios few forested areas is crucial in todays times is needed now more than ever. Please rethink where you build and chose a not protected area.
Incredibly disappointed to hear the plans to allow development on green belt lands after the Conservatives promised they would not touch them in 2021.
This past month has made me ashamed I voted Conservative.
I do not support the idea to remove acreage from the Greenbelt to build more urban sprawl.
Further intensification of existing urban lands within the GTHA should be made a priority coupled with investments in public transit to move people around.

Expansion into the Greenbelt should absolutely not be considered. The Greenbelt is intended to protect the lands from growth and development. This plan is the exact opposite.

I dont know what moron decided to redevlop an essential area for feeding the populace into further urban hell to so that his campaign donors can further line their pockets with public money. But my bet is on the current Ontario Premier.

We should absolutely be safeguarding our environment in Ontario and not allowing any development into the Green Belt. The Green Belt provides vital ecosystem services and is home to a wide array of species.

Keep your promise and don't touch the Greenbelt. Instead, focus on introducing density to existing residential areas and making them more livable by focusing on transit infrastructure.
Doug Ford in 2018 promised to not touch the greenbelt, and was elected on that promise. It seems the government wants to do everything to increase housing stock except

As a young (27 years old) Ontarian, I would like to be excited about the proposals our government has for how they are going to make it easier for me to start a family and own a home.

Greenbelt is increasingly important as the climate change wrecks havoc on environment. If we absolutely must to build there, let's build densely, so the sacrifice is worth it.
