Canada's national park system was established to protect the wilderness spaces that were and are so important to our identity as a nation. Protecting our existing wetlands in Ontario's greenbelt from development is one important step to honour that tradition.

Please do everything you can to protect the safety of the ecological habitats !
Please increase protection, increase land that needs to be protected from construction
I would like to support the largest expansion possible of the greenbelt, in particular the rouge river upstream of the national park and the watershed of Duffins creek.

Yes, expand the greenbelt around the GTO as much as possible. The headwaters of Duffin Creek and the Rouge River should be included. Many urban people need access to natural areas for enjoyment. All need the ecological services of quasi-natural areas.
The largest possible expansion of the Greenbelt will protect ecological corridors and keep important natural areas off limits to development
The Rouge River upstream of Rouge National Urban Park and Duffin’s Creek are key areas for restoration and enhanced protection and connectivity.
