More evidence from the Trillium that the Greenbelt land grab wasn’t about housing. Article reveals insider trading details by PC staffer Amin Massoudi with Flato developer Shakir Rehmatullah. Anyone surprised? thetrillium.ca/news/politics/…

😢This is one of the most heartbreaking speeches I have heard in a long while. Farmers livelihoods are being destroyed in Ontario and they can't protect farmland alone. Please take a few minutes this weekend and contact your MPP. 🚜 HANDS OFF ALL FARMLAND !!!!! #BILL185
Why are Wilmot, Ontario farmers being asked to sell their land or have it taken from them? We're going to get to the bottom of this - just like we did with the #Greenbelt. ⬇️ #ONpoli

The bill & the new Provincial Policy Statement tinker at the edges of housing policy. BUT, Calandra reverses course yet again. Sprawl speculators will disrupt planning in a WILLY NILLY fashion. Growth plan gone. This is dangerous for our environment, food security & water.

My honest reaction? They’ll probably all get promotions. I’d love to be proven wrong.
BREAKING: Toronto police have tapped the OPP to conduct an independent review "as a result of the adverse comments made by Superior Court Justice Anne Molloy in the trial regarding the death of Detective Constable Jeffrey Northrup."
Whenever your suburb, town or city is debating whether to make a Scrooge-like transformation in favour of density & walkability- or stay stick in it's old exclusionary rut, my role- on behalf of @envirodefence- is to be your on-call "Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come".
IF you'd find it impractical to get to work, grocery shop, or get your kid to hockey wo a car, your neighbourhood's character is a PROBLEM. Like Ebenezer Scrooge, many lowrise neighbourhoods have very FLAWED characters & need a major transformation to turn them good.
