The land of the Greenbelt is protected for a reason. It should not be developed for a highway that will barely save time, and mansions for millionaires. We need housing, great use the empty office buildings that are literally everywhere. Limit the top 1% from buying every property under the sun. Read more

I disagree with building on the Greenbelt. Climate change and global warming are serious concerns the government should be taking more seriously. The benefit of building overpriced houses or unnecessary highways does not outweigh the burden on the environment or the housing crisis. Read more

The green belt is protected land and the very thought of developing on it should have been one that was denied before it even got this far. We’re in the midst of a climate crisis, we need to protect any forestry we can, the last thing we need is more developments that line corporate pockets.

The greenbelt is more valuable to our society as as a protected greenspace then for more development. We need to keep a balance with how we spread out otherwise this could have devastating environmental effects and will effect the citizens as well with flooding etc Read more

I am absolutely DISGUSTED that opening the green belt is even being considered. This is a protected area for a reason! There are so many animals that depend on this land to survive. So many endangered species that would be eradicated if this were to happen. Read more

I do not have the words to express how horrified and disappointed I am by this proposal, and by the walking back of these protections in favour of high-density development. The Greenbelt plays a vital role in protecting our climate and various species. Read more

One of my biggest concerns with Map 6 and the removal of the Greenbelt in Pickering is flooding. Have there been proper research and surveying done in regards to flooding being a risk for the suburban area found directly below this greenbelt space? Read more
