I do not believe we need more low density housing. We need to build denser cities that are more bike-able and can have better more efficient transit.

The people of Ontario believed that the Greenbelt would be protected in perpetuity . Now the Ontario Government wants to remove 7400 acres from the greenbelt in order to build homes. We believed the Premier when he said "the people have spoken we won't touch the greenbelt.

1. Proposed Changes: Changes to the Greenbelt Area Boundary
Potential City Impacts:
- Removing land from the Greenbelt could have environmental consequences both inside and outside of Mississauga.
- Environment impacts could be compounded by a reduced role of Conservation Authorities.

I am writing to express my strong opposition to your proposal to remove 7,400 acres from the Greenbelt (ERO #019-6216 and #019-6217).
I do not accept the government’s misleading premise that these Greenbelt lands are needed for housing.

Ontario green space should be preserved. Many Canadians (new and old) moving to cities would rather live downtown where services are available for transportation to and from where they want to go without jumping in a car and spending time in traffic.

I am writing to express my vehement opposition to the new Bill 23 and the long-term, negative impact this regressive bill will have on Ontario's Greenbelt, wetlands, farmland, sustainable building standards, and the increased financial burden it will ultimately place on taxpayers.

I am disgusted with Bill 23 and the policy proposals designed to weaken environmental protections and remove public involvement in land use planning.
It is atrocious that Ford's government is planning to:
1. Remove my right to appeal planning matters

I am VEHEMENTLY opposed to any development of any protected green space!
Look to redevelop other city spaces into low rise units.
We need to develop more of a European mindset in creating living spaces.

Do not alter the green belt, this proposal does nothing for the AFFORDABLE housing crisis and only benefits developers. Developers are actively contributing to our housing problems and are causing economic, social and environmental damage. This proposal only feeds corporate profit.
Terribly short sighted.
The legacy of any government should be to make decisions that affect the enduring health, prosperity and happiness of their populace.

As currently written, Bill 23 would be a disaster for Ontario. As the climate crisis worsens, wetlands are essential to stave off expensive floods, and farmland is increasingly valuable - yet this bill would decimate both.

We all need green spaces, so I do not recommend taking down what we already have. All of nature depends on the green space. Animals and humans all need green spaces. Please leave them alone for the health of our future generations.
Why are we even touching the Greenbelt after Doug Ford promised not to touch it in 2018? I am very concerned over this proposed bill 23.
We have plenty of places to build without sprawling onto more of the Greenbelt.

I'm a homeowner in the Upper Beaches in Toronto. I currently have a laneway home being built next door. What was formerly a beautiful, unobstructed view of a city park is now a giant wall. But I believe in laneway builds as one of many solutions to assist with the home shortage.
