We can't keep prioritizing housing over FOOD production!
Protect our farmland!
It's an affordability and sustainability issue, we shouldn't rely on other countries for our food!
Stop chipping away at our most precious resources so rich people can build McMansions!
Farmland and green space is critical to sustain food for the local urban space. Refurbish industrial lands or gentrify older areas for affordable housing. Moving into green space is disrupting animal habitats and causing more accidents with deer and other creatures.

No boundary Expansion! As an Ontario voter and citizen I demand that you keep your greenbelt promise. NO boundary expansion. Build smart within urban boundaries with the environment and people coming first. For our kids, and our grandkids - we need to do the right thing!

I am 100% against expansion into our green belt. Firstly: in Hamilton, housing targets can be met on existing land. We have a sea of surface parking lots to use for housing. Parking should be underground.

Housing is not being built for the workers and retiring farmers that grow food. Farm succession is a crisis. A recent report by UofGuelph and RBC shows that about 40% of farmers are set to retire in the next 10 years.

We need to increase the housing supply! Please allow farmers to sever the three lots of land immediately. This is how you save our farming families and keep farm land strong in Ontario.
I’m a third generation farmer who’s trying to hand over the family farm to my kids but it is difficult when there’s nowhere for them to live and raise families like we did.

I am writing to express my strong opposition to proposed changes to the Provincial Policy Statement, 2022 (PPS) and the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (Growth Plan). These changes would accelerate urban sprawl and the ongoing loss of farmland and natural areas in Ontario.
