Instead, the government has needlessly set the #YIMBY movement back by reinforcing harmful narratives about dishonesty in the housing space. WE DO NOT CONDONE the actions of the politicians, staffers, or developers involved. (3/9)

Along with many voices from across the spectrum, we're calling on the #Ontario provincial government to implement ALL of the recommendations from the #OntarioAuditorGeneral report, including Recommendation 14: Re-evaluation of 2022 Decision to Change the Greenbelt Boundaries. (6/9)

We’re also calling on the #Ontario Government to enact reforms to build more housing in places where there’s existing infrastructure and where people already want to live: in existing neighbourhoods. The #HousingAffordabilityTaskForce’s recommendations should be enacted now. (7/9)

The #OntarioAuditorGeneral's full report is available at https://auditor.on.ca/en/content/specialreports/specialreports/Greenbelt_en.pdf. It contains way more information than we can get into on Mastodon, and is worth at least skimming. (8/9)
We encourage you to call or email your local MPP. Here's where you can find them: https://www.ola.org/en/members#block-findyourmpp or the Minister of Housing: [email protected], 416-585-7000. Some resources with more information: Environmental Defence's press release from last year
