We are outraged that premier Ford who had promised not to touch the greenbelt has now decided it can be developed. It is extremely concerning that a few developers have purchased greenbelt land in the past few years, which is now being removed from the greenbelt for development. Read more

I am very strongly against taking away any portion of our green belt and wetlands. I am actually shocked that our premier wants to do this as it was a campaign promise to preserve it not destroy it. This is our food supply and citizens way of life and income. Read more

The Greenbelt should not be touched. It is disgusting that Premier Ford is allowing developers who openly contribute to his campaign pressure him into giving up these important ecological areas. Doug Ford promised not to touch the Greenbelt. So much for his word. Read more

I strongly oppose bill 23. This will do nothing to help with our affordability problem with housing. Developers build homes at current market pricing and these prices are still unattainable for the majority of first time buyers. Read more

Do not go ahead with this bill!!! Doug you promised you wouldn’t touch the green belt. LISTEN to the people like a good leader should. This is a critical time for forward thinking decisions with our climate and sensitive lands, NOT a time to retreat to old ways. Be better. Read more

The proposed development of the Greenbelt combined with the building of HWY 413 should not be allowed. What is happening is a complete travesty and will have long term economic and environmental impacts. That will impact all Ontarians. Please do not build the highway or develop the greenbelt.

This is continuing racism Ontario! No consent from the First Nations whose territory you're determined to set on fire. THIS IS NOT RECONCILLATION. THIS IS NOT CLIMATE JUSTICE. Its just racist and simply stupid. Broken promises from the government again eh. Read more

I do not support these changes. The Greenbelt should remain intact except for very minor, local changes. These changes take significant areas out of the Greenbelt while many of the added areas are already protected. This actually results in a net loss of protected areas. Read more

Absolutely unacceptable that the conservative government would propose changes they committed to never applying. We want a government that sticks to their commitments, not one that bends to big business investments. Who are we, Americans? Read more

We must protect the green belt from housing development. We need these lands to help mitigate against climate catastrophe and species extinction. More urban sprawl will only contribute to these, while doing little if anything to address the current housing crisis. Read more

I am admittedly opposed to changes to the Greenbelt. Although i am very much for more affordable housing this is in no way a solution to the problem and feels like a blatant land grab at the risk of my children’s Ontario and future generations.
