Do not develop the greenbelt. The development of the greenbelt will destroy the environmental peace we’ve tried to maintain there, destroy the calm of the small towns in the area, and ruin one of our most famous landmarks.

Please do not touch the Green Belt - it is specifically designed to protect farmland and environmental habitat. I stand with Victor Doyle in saying “It undermines its permanency.

The greenbelt should continue to be protected. Removing it's protection will have catastrophic consequences to vegetation and wildlife. This is unacceptable for our environment and future generations.
I’m writing to you today in support of the Greenbelt, Conservation Authorities and Ontario’s wetlands, woodlands and other natural areas.
Firstly, I am writing to state my opposition to the proposal to remove 7,400 acres of land from the Greenbelt, which was revealed on November 04.

Please do not go through with this proposal. The Greenbelt hasn't even made it 20 years without being pillaged.
There are more ways to ensure housing for Ontarians.

This is a total slap in the face to all of the hard work that has been involved in the preservation of green space in Ontario. The Greenbelt is an important part of our identity as southern Ontarians.

We need to protect our green belt, and the protected species that reside there. It is protected for a reason, do not develop it. It is protected from development.

A small part of what is being said is true - more housing is needed.
However, to suggest that this be built 'quickly' will not provide the kind of stable, quality shelter
and the surrounding neighbourhoods that singles and families will need.

Pursuant to the Ford Government’s commitment to honour Ontario’s Greenbelt, I demand that you do just that. Studies have shown that this land is not necessary to solve the province’s housing issues and that there are other options available. It would also be an environmental catastrophe.

Keep the Greenbelt green!! Don't destroy it for highways and "development". The Greenbelt is a vital part of our environment, taking away from it will only serve to damage our home and cause ill effects on our climate.
Please go through a proper public consultation process before developing the Greenbelt.
Please agree with the NDP and Green Party on how to build more affordable homes and save the Greenbelt.
Thanks.
I request that you do not make any changes to the greenbelt act. As we have seen during the Covid epidemic, it is critical to the health and well being of Ontarian's to be outside with exposure to greenspace.

I oppose the building of homes on the protected green belt lands.
Please do not touch the protected green belt. Please keep your promises, Mr. Ford.
Please consider other housing options. There are available lands that do not encroach on the green belt.

Before any more progress takes place involving the greenbelt an investigation needs to be done. I fail to see how the selling off of a portion of this land to developers for pennies on the dollar prior to the bill passing then forecasting massive returns once developed is not fraud.

I am against removing and redesignating these lands. Ontario has protected these lands to protect our valuable and dwindling wetlands, woodlands, farm and watersheds. Many of these areas cannot be just swapped out for different land somewhere else. Wetlands take a considerable time to establish.
