Doug Ford has privately assured developers he will “open a big chunk” of protected land in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area to housing if the Progressive Conservatives win the June 7 election.
In a video recorded Feb. 12 and shared with the media Monday by the governing Liberals, Ford said the 800,000-hectare swath of environmentally sensitive and agricultural land known as the Greenbelt is “just farmer fields.”
“It’s right beside a community. We need to open that up and create a larger supply,” he said, noting that will lead to “price drops” in housing in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area.
“I’ve already talked to some of the biggest developers in the country, and, again, I wish I could say it’s my idea, but it was their idea as well,” the PC leader said in February.
“ ‘Give us property! We’ll build and we’ll drive the cost down.’ That’s my plan for affordable housing,” he said.

I see a couple of the Libtard MLA’s asking why Doug Ford is talking to Developers.
I can answer that. Your Criminal Ways are finished Libturds.
Doug Ford can talk to anyone He likes. He is going to be Ontario’s Premier when you wake up on June 8th and you Fvcktards will heading to the Bread Lines.
Ford’s first misstep. Very swamp-like (pun intended).
Lol. Except everything they build will be 1000 sq meter luxury homes.
Greenbelt = Agenda 21
