NEW REPORT: More than enough land available to build over 2 million homes in the Greater Golden Horseshoe by 2031, without touching the Greenbelt or expanding urban boundaries environmentaldefence.ca/2023/02/27/new… via @envirodefence #homesincities #HandsOffTheGreenbelt
@CanadaGray @envirodefence But how are insiders supposed to get cheap land, supposedly frozen in environmental mortmain, and make obscene profits.
@CanadaGray @envirodefence @NickelBelt @fordnation remind me again why we need to open up the Greenbelt if this is true? Are you sure it isn’t to appease developer friends that bought greenbelt land?
@CanadaGray @RGMC_Ontario @envirodefence #overshoot #netzero "CIBC's Dodig warns Canada risks 'largest social crisis' if housing supply, immigration don't match. The question we should also be asking is why it is necessary to keep on growing the size of the labour force and the economy"? financialpost.com/news/economy/c…
@CanadaGray @envirodefence Hey Dougie here is your out. What will your developer buddies say
@CanadaGray @envirodefence But his already bought what he told them to, so what is a premiere to do?
@CanadaGray @envirodefence '2 million more homes,' even if not built directly on the Green Belt, will certainly affect it in many ways. How much more water, etc., can be extracted? What about air quality? How will the already fragile natural corridors and interconnections be compromised?
@CanadaGray @envirodefence Tons of derelict malls with massive empty parking lots to retrofit into sustainable communities as well, along highway’s. Drive along any of the highways, you’ll see rows of tons of it.
@CanadaGray @envirodefence Hey here's an idea,how about the rest of the province/country.
