I genuinely believe keeping the Green Belt properly conserved is important for respecting the past and persevering the future. Putting it up for development is wrong considering the limited space wildlife already has in Southern Ontario.
This proposal is ridiculous. The greenbelt exists for a reason, it is an important conservation area for wildlife and the local ecosystem.
Not to mention that any developments built on this land will, in all likelihood, flood.

I am strongly against construction of any sort on the Greenbelt, as it it protected land and that bio-diversity is irreplaceable. The greenbelt prevents the risk of flooding as well. Efforts in construction of any sort of residential housing would be much better suited in already populated areas.

This is an incredibly irresponsible proposal and I strongly disagree with it. Our natural environments must be protected at all costs. Ontario is already experiencing rapid urban sprawl/development and we need to preserve as much of our green space outside the GTA at all costs.

I am not in favour of these amendments. The Green belt needs to be protected forever, in fact I would love to see acres added not taken away. The housing solution is not more sprawl.
This is a bad plan, the Greenlands there are home to many wildlife there, and many conservations. We don't need to build it there where there's many empty office buildings that you can use for homes. Plus why are you focusing on this when there's bigger issues at play?

I believe that the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing needs a readjustment of its priorities because the only true benefit of destroying vital wetlands and conservation areas is to enrich out-of-touch real estate developers.

I think this is a terrible idea, as we continue to watch the world suffer and the weather patterns change under the effects of the climate crisis, to take important natural land and ruin it with developments that will destroy important natural habitats.

No corporate and no housing developments in the green belt. Period. Keeping the environment is more important then profit. The future of our children and grandchildren are more important then instant gratification.
This is a terrible idea for the environment and will likely not help the current housing crisis. I would rather if our government proposed a solution that repurposes already available housing and providing them to the people at lower costs that are actually affordable those in need.
Do not expand the urban sprawl further into natural areas. We do not need more detach housing that will create more and more car-dependent neighbourhoods that are impossible to live in without a vehicle.

Please do now allow for this short sighted proposal to move any further forward. This is negatively impact all of Ontario in the current climate crisis.

I am completely opposed to development of the green belt. We mist protect our wetlands, water sheds and farm lands. Developing the land is unnecessary, there are many other places better to develop in Ontario.

Absolute worst idea I've ever heard of. You want to spend millions of dollars on a highway that's so far north that there's no possible way it can feasibly relieve Toronto traffic congestion???

You politicians should all be ashamed of your proposal. Not only does it go against campaign promises for the EXACT opposite of what you currently propose, it is an outright lie that we are having a housing crisis.
