My concern relates to the long term consequences of buildings on land that has potential for flooding and/or contributes to future flooding. Flooding is recognized by international organizations that flooding is the biggest emerging threat to people and property from climate disasters.

Ontarians truly care about the protection of the Greenbelt. All this is, is the rich getting richer. Not only that, it is a conflict of interest for Ford to have dealings with these powerful developers and they obviously knew before the rest of the Province what was happening.

This is not a great way to build homes, we need to exercise other avenues for a long lasting benefit on the country not a benefit for Doug ford and his development pals
The environmental and agriculture value to the greenbelt and the prevention of sprawl was the original reason for the creation of the Greenbelt in the first place.

what makes you think that adding to the green belt while releasing portions of it (that were already promised to never be developed) will earn trust? If you can take it now and go back on promises what stops it from happening again and again?! Stop with the BS.

It would be a mistake to re-open development in this area. The greenbelt is critical in protecting our groundwater resources, as well as ensuring that we have strategic development plans in place that lead to better connected communities.
This is both an economic and environmental mistake.
The government needs to substantiate it's claims that this housing development will provide affordable housing (for new immigrants, or anybody else). If the government is reducing the cost to developers, it does not necessarily mean those cost savings will be passed on to consumers.

This plan is directly contrary to the platform the current governing party campaigned on. Furthermore, there is clear evidence of corruption in the bidding and awarding process. A full investigation of the government is needed and demanded by the voting public.
The environment is in dire need of rescuing and one of the best ways is TO PLANT MORE TREES - not tear them down!!! And why you may ask would our Government who supposedly is there to serve us, their constituents - would approve this???

The loss of the Greenbelt is a loss of habitats forever. There is no thoughtful plan to do anything but cover land with cheap houses. There has to be a plan for sustainability of habitats and a decoupling of economic benefits to known land grabbers who donated lots of money to the PC party.

You said you were not going to build on the greenbelt. Don't go back on your word. Building on these important farm lands would cause irreparable harm to the environment including compromising our drinking water. Please leave these farm lands alone.

I am opposed to the changes to the Greenbelt and your government is corrupt and beholden to developers. This is not in the best interest of the greenbelt and you are a duplicitous government hellbent on destroying the province.
Hands off our green belt!! We, the people of Ontario, see and understand fully what you are really doing here and it has nothing to do with building affordable homes. Those developers must really have you cornered!

Stop urbanization on farmland and environmentally sensitive land Ontario.
The Greenbelt is a result of years of consultation and advice by experts. How can unqualified elected representatives decide to build and pave over land without proper expert consultation.

I am very concerned about the proposal to build houses in the Greenbelt for the following reasons:
1. The Greenbelt provides the type of large contiguous area that is import to protect wildlife.
