Ontario Greens Leader Mike Schreiner has welcomed the Ontario Liberals’ support for legislation aimed at legalizing gentle density across the province. The proposed BUILD Ontario Act aligns with the Greens’ long-standing efforts to permit fourplexes and mid-rise buildings in residential areas, while also reducing parking requirements to make housing more affordable. Schreiner urges the Liberals to expand their vision by advocating for even higher density options on transit corridors, aiming to address the housing crisis without encroaching on valuable green spaces.
