This entire proposal feels insane. Putting the greenbelt at risk for the sake of making more money on the housing market is honestly disgusting. The fact that the current Ontario government is looking to put our green spaces at risk in the name of profit is unsurprising but still disappointing.

The proposed amendments to the green belt are counter to the Ontario’s Housing Affordability Task Force 2022 report. This report stated that a shortage of land isn’t the cause of Ontario’s housing problem and that Greenbelts, environmentally sensitive areas and farmland must be protected. Read more

Ontarioans were told by Doug Ford that the Greenbelt would be protected under his leadership and it disgusting to see this promise broken. This proposal only lines the pockets of Ford's donors to sell land and housing to a lucky few, while these priceless lands are lost to future generations. Read more

This bill spits in the face of democracy. The greenbelt is irreplaceable and integral to our environment. We all know this land is not going to be developed to provide affordable housing. This is being developed to make Doug Ford’s donors richer. Read more

I am against this proposal. The conservatives repeatedly promised to not touch the greenbelt, and have now reneged on their word. Beyond the Conservative duplicity, once destroyed or developed, there are limited options to return the greenbelt habitats to how they used to be.
