I think there are other ways to approach the housing crisis within Ontario. What is the point of putting through the greenbelt just to disregard its purpose now? There is other land that can be built up within Toronto and outside of it that has lots to offer. Read more

Hi, I am a grade 7 student in Toronto and I don’t think Doug Ford should take land from the greenbelt. Although I agree with Doug Ford's statement that we could use 50,000 new homes, the way that Doug Ford explained, he would take land and replace it in different parts. Read more

The greenbelt must remain untouched and free from development. It was reserved in its entirety for important reasons which have not change in the interim. Therefore, no commercial development for highways, housing or any other purpose may be allowed. No development of any kind.

This proposal to remove parts of the Green Belt is completely tone deaf and honestly ridiculous within the context of present day 2022. If we are truly committed to reducing our carbon output and reducing our impact on climate change, than we simply cannot reduce any further green space. Read more

We owned a piece of property in the propose area map 6 in Pickering, S of 407, W of Duffins Creek and N of the CP Belleville Rail line. We support the removal of this land from greenbelt. We feel this will increase the value of our land and provide security for our family. Read more
