I'm deeply troubled by the proposal to pave over protected greenbelt land, ostensibly to build houses. It's a decision that makes very little sense and makes me embarrassed for our leadership. Why not expand development in areas that alread have supported infrastructure like the GTA? Read more

Ford’s plan is a joke and the transparency into how this will benefit his supporters along with the fact that there are no checks and balances in place anymore seem like a good direction for this province. (Insert sarcasm emoji here, in case you didn’t pick up on it)

Completely unacceptable. The world is drowning due to climate change and the conservatives are plotting this. Ford governments have historically broken promises and will continue to do this. This plan to mess around with the green belt is just ridiculous.

Building in the greenbelt is a terrible idea considering the environmental risks at stake and low return on investment to the population. Car pollution, urban sprawl and poorly planned sub urban development are significant contributors to a growing environmental crisis. Read more

You cannot replace greenbelt land, these are lands developed over 12 000 years. You must not touch these lands. It goes against your responsibility to Canada and its promise to protect the aboriginal rights of first nations peoples, which includes access to their own lands. Read more

I absolutely do not support this proposed removal of Greenbelt land for development. We have an urgent need for housing, but more urban sprawl is not the answer and this land is vital for the ecological health of the region, it cannot simply be replaced with land reserved elsewhere. Read more

Please listen to the people of Ontario and don’t develop the Greenbelt. I urge you to find better solutions and focus on housing that is actually accessible. This will create more gridlock on the series 400 hwys. We don’t need more sprawl, we need to use the land we already have. Read more

Please do not build houses or a highway on the greenbelt. Now more than ever we need to preserve green spaces and agricultural lands. Increase the density of existing suburbs and cities. Require a certain number of apartment buildings or townhouse complexes be built in any new developments.
