Ontario Greens leader Mike Schreiner has criticized Premier Ford’s decision to proceed with removing lands from the Greenbelt, labeling it as both corrupt and out of touch with public sentiment. He emphasizes that the current housing crisis can be addressed without sacrificing vital farmland, wetlands, and forests, which are crucial for food security and environmental sustainability. Schreiner calls for the reversal of the $8.3 billion Greenbelt scandal and urges the Premier to focus on developing affordable housing in existing approved areas instead of further exploiting the Greenbelt.
