I really have to wonder why this government bothers to spend public money on having task forces such as the Affordable Homes Task Force spend time and energy drawing up and making reports if the government ignores the findings and does as it pleases anyway.

This proposal would put an additional strain on already strained farming operations. It would impact food security and independence, and it would lead to loss of wildlife in animals and plants.

Dear Minister Clark,
I am writing to express my concerns regarding the proposed changes found in the proposed Provincial Policy Statement, 2023 (PPS 2023). Specifically, I am concerned about the impact the proposed policies will have on agricultural lands in the province.

Developing the green belt is an asinine and horrible idea. Many communities rely on the green belt and development would condemn our entire province's ability to farm food. We need food. We don't need this damn development.
The limited supply of food producing land is the only point of reference that any intelligent politician needs to respect. this ford lead government is being lead by developers.
Council for the Corporation of the Town of Georgina considered and endorsed Staff Report No. DS-2023-0047 regarding Bill 97, Helping Homebuyers, Protecting Tenants Act, 2023 and the Review of the Provincial Policy Statement and A Place to Grow - Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe.

Please reconsider the new Planning Statement and Bill 97. Too much of Ontario's prime agriculture land is being sacrificed. Communities should be encouraged to grow in directions where farmland isn't being used, our national food security is too important.
The changes to the Provincial Policy Statement and A Place to Grow are irresponsible and shows this Government’s disregard for the people of this province. Removing the need for an MCR to expand settlement boundaries is ridiculous and goes against good planning.

While I agree housing is in crisis. And, Ontario has some of the toughest regulations involving development second to California the answer is not another form of extremism. Arbitrary decision-making is equally dangerous and potentially more damaging.

2.2 Housing
The responsibility of communal systems should be the responsibility of the planning approval authority. In two tier systems, the upper tier should be responsible.
Rural consents on agricultural lots should be limited to a maximum of one not three.

We are land owners in rural perth county and live only a few country blocks from a small town. We own separate parcels of land totaling 400 acres. Allowing extra housing to be built on our properties would clutter up our road with 10 more homes on our land alone!!!

Ontario’s productive farmland is a scarce resource, making up less than five per cent of all the land in the province. It is our unwavering position that agricultural production is the most valued and best use of this land.

I'm not very good with "legalese" so am lucky that a friend went over this document with me, and I was rather appalled at what I found hidden there as I'm very much interested in protecting our land and water as climate change continues.
