We need to stop short sighted planning, protected green lands are necessary for vegetation, humans and animals. I am unable to find a house I can afford but I will not sacrifice protected lands to get mine. There are better and safer ways to develop our large province.
Please leave the Greenbelt areas undisturbed. Do no develop on them. They were designated through the proper channels, and for a reason. There is no such thing as moving a protected area, like moving a wetland. They are where they are. Leave them.

To whom it may concern, I think this is absolutely shameful and horrible stewardship. These protected zones are essential to the survival of the ecosystems upon which we rely.

I don't agree to allowing housing being built on the greenbelt. I would instead like to see more dense housing eg condo being built on existing land around the major transportation hubs.

We do not need to sacrifice the environment to build houses no one can afford. Affordable housing is what we need, and there are plenty of ways we can do it without destroying land!
I am strongly opposed to removing or redesignating Greenbelt land for the purpose of development. While we need more housing in Ontario, it does not need to be created by destroying valuable, environmentally crucial land.

The problem isn't that we need more housing, the problem is that all the housing in this province is prohibitively expensive. There are empty houses all over the place that are empty because they cost over a million dollars.

I am a 26 year old young woman terrified for my future. I am terrified because this government seems to have zero respect or forward thought into how valuable our environment is to our future.

With Bill 23, the More Homes Built Faster Act, 2022, the Government of Ontario is proposing sweeping changes to the province’s natural heritage and land use planning legislation and policy.

I am outraged at the idea of developing the greenbelt. The green belt should be protected just as Doug ford promised on his re-election. A man who's word means nothing is no man at all.

Do not destroy or dig into the greenbelt. Climate change is already worsening by the day, it's getting hotter and hotter each year, storms are getting more intense, the earth is dying. The last thing we need is more protected land ruined. Doug Ford is bullying others yet again for personal gain.

You can not touch the green belt! We need it for farming and having forests to help clear the polluting air from the cities close by. We need farms for local produce. Trees are a home for animals and help clear the carbon from all the emissions from the highways and cities.

There is sufficient developable land that is outside the Greenbelt. There is sufficient developable land within the urban and suburban setting to meet the housing targets. Developers do not require this extra land, period.

I implore the Ontario government to halt its plans to develop the Greenbelt. It is imperative to permanently protect this ecologically, agriculturally, and culturally important land. We must start to think further ahead to the legacy we are leaving for future generations of Ontarians.
