Is Ford flip flopping on his promise to stop the Campbellville quarry? Quarry is a waste of taxpayers' money and time -there are 6000+ mines in ON #stopthequarry #Milton thetrillium.ca/news/politics/…

Why this petition matters: Strong mayor powers introduced by the Province through amendments to the Municipal Act are dysfunctional and antidemocratic Please read and sign the petition.

@QueensParkToday Is Ford going to keep his promise to stop the #Campbellville quarry? #milton #onpoli
We really need to continue to protect this land for future generations. Niagara Escarpment on the Greenbelt - The Beaver River watershed has been inhabited by people for 12,000 years. From the Paleo and Archaic through Woodland and Contact periods. southgreynews.ca/local-news/asp…

The Greenbelt Foundation is pleased to announce renewed funding of $12 million over the next three years from the Government of Ontario through the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks. Read the full news release here: bit.ly/3v8aqpX
I did numerous interviews with Brian Mulroney over the years, including this one: youtube.com/watch?v=rVrubD… #cdnpoli
Deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Prime Minister Mulroney. A visionary leader who understood the possibilities of a new world order and seized them for Canadians. Steadfast in his principles against apartheid & for the environment. An example to all & a mentor to many.
1/3 On behalf of my mother and our family, it is with great sadness we announce the passing of my father, The Right Honourable Brian Mulroney, Canada’s 18th Prime Minister. He died peacefully, surrounded by family.

Yup, this is a problem. So let’s change the Provincial Policy Statement that governs municipal Official Plans. They openly favour big aggregate and of course big aggregate knows how to exploit the language. Who loses, small rural Ontario that’s who….

Blast this...Auditor General of Ontario - the province is failing to manage aggregate resources giving industry a free hand - that's what red tape reduction does- it puts industry interests ahead of #publichealth, safety, #water protection, air emissions #onpoli #noneeditsgreed
The report of the Ontario Auditor General states that the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (MNRF) is “falling short” in its duty to “minimiz[e] the impacts of aggregate operations [and] regulating the industry to ensure operators comply with all necessary requirements.”
Sign our letter to the province today! Tell Ford to say YES to protecting the #Greenbelt by saying NO to new gravel mines and highways in Ontario's Greenbelt. #Noneeditsgreed #saveourGreenbelt @STOPHWY413 @OntarioNature @coreburlington @wildernewsON

Small town mayors - do not allow yourselves to be the lackeys of the #Ford Gov. You owe it to the constituents of your communities to SAY NO to the corrupt schemes of the #Ford gov seeking to override existing municipal boundaries

YES!!!!! The RCMP is officially investigating the Ford government for the #GreenbeltScandal !!! What great news for the millions of Ontarians who have been calling for this! #onpoli #cdnpoli #Greenbelt #GreenbeltGrab cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
Glad to hear that the RCMP is investigating the corrupt process that saw a few wealthy, well-connected land speculators make $8.3 billion. @OntarioGreens have repeatedly called for a police investigation to restore Ontarians’ trust. #onpoli #greenbelt
BREAKING: The RCMP has launched a criminal investigation into Premier Doug Ford’s $8.28B Greenbelt land swap scandal. The @TorontoStar has the story. #onpoli thestar.com/politics/provi…
Today is a great day for the environment and the Greenbelt -- and an achievement for public advocacy. As a result of your efforts, Premier Ford has announced the Province will be returning the lands removed back into our protected Greenbelt. He has admitted it was a mistake to…
There is no breach of contract. That's silly. If you speculate on land, particularly land that is under the most stringent environmental protections, nothing is owed to you when those lands remain protected. Speculation is speculation. You win, you lose. That is the game.
@jen_keesmaat The developers will sue the province for breach of contract and win. We ON taxpayers will end up footing the bill for decades. Remember, some of them took out 25%+ interest loans to buy up the land in this land scam. They're motivated.
BIG NEWS This is the right thing: Premier Ford announces that he will reverse removal of lands from the Greenbelt. Also announces that he will not remove additional lands. I presume this means the questionable "review" is over. We have been heard. Apology accepted. Let's…
BREAKING: Premier Doug Ford says his government will completely reverse the Greenbelt land swap decision. “It was a mistake to open the Greenbelt.” #Onpoli
It was just the Chief of Staff! No wait! …it was just the Minister No wait! … it was just the other Minister The @OntarioPCParty is running out of people to blame for the #GreenbeltScandal cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
It’s just so dirty… all of it. #GreenbeltScandal cbc.ca/news/canada/to…
Ontario Premier Doug Ford says Greenbelt lands won’t be developed after all /via @globeandmail theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…
I can say with absolute certainty, this council and staff, we will never sell Tyandaga golf course; we will never give up an inch of that green space. People are concerned this course is at risk. We will never surrender that green space. We want to talk about what you want to see…
I never watched Lloyd Robertson, Knowlton Nash and Peter Mansbridge host The National and thought the CBC was "government-controlled", or should be "de-funded". Nor do I do so now with Adrienne Arsenault and Ian Hanomansing at the helm. Speak up if you agree.
Highway 413 would pave the Greenbelt and cost us $8 billion. What else could that money buy? ⤵️ #HandsOffTheGreenbelt #ONpoli

This new report reinforces what we have already heard over and over from numerous experts and the government’s own hand-picked Housing Affordability Task Force. We do not need Greenbelt land for housing. Full stop. #onpoli
#Media - A new report makes it clear that there is 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 Learn more: bit.ly/3IV1wQM
