As Ontario Agriculture Week unfolds, Green Party leader Mike Schreiner condemns Premier Doug Ford’s continued encroachment on farmland through aggressive urban boundary expansions and highway constructions. Schreiner argues that these actions prioritize the interests of well-connected developers over the urgent need for affordable housing solutions. He emphasizes that the government’s land grabs not only jeopardize the province’s agricultural resources but also fail to address the housing crisis facing Ontarians. The call for a shift towards sustainable and connected community development is more urgent than ever.
