Build housing in cities where the #jobs and #water pipes already exist that's how to reduce the cost of housing while ensuring continued investment and renewal in our cities.
@fordnation SAID they'd start building on the Greenbelt by the end of 2023. We know how that turned out! Highway 413 WON'T be built by 2025, or at all, as long as the federal government does its job by denying permits, & designating 413 under the updated Impact Assessment Act.

Who would have thought keeping or not keeping a promise made by Ford to stop a quarry would be the focus of a provincial by-election? Provincial party leaders expected to attend anti-quarry rally in #Milton Saturday 2 p.m. #keepthepromise #stopthequarry insauga.com/provincial-par…

@ZoeCoombes @GGHfriends It's worth noting, also, that GGH Friends isn't endorsing what Mausberg sent. It seems to have literally been a matter of him not having a twitter account and asking someone to post it in the way a paper would.

BAM! 💥 The federal budget will amend the Impact Assessment Act to let Canada stop Doug Ford's 413 bulldozers in their tracks by imposing a NEW federal impact assessment! (Now we know WHY @fordnation held this morning's substance-free press conference.) environmentaldefence.ca/2024/04/30/pre…
@fordnation SAID they'd start building on the Greenbelt by the end of 2023. We know how that turned out! Highway 413 WON'T be built by 2025, or at all, as long as the federal government does its job by denying permits, & designating 413 under the updated Impact Assessment Act.
To be clear, it isn't a slam dunk: While the amendments will restore Canada's power to designate Highway 413, by fixing issues that scotched the old assessment, it's still *possible* they'll decide to switch sides by refusing to USE these restored powers. Keep up the pressure.
Wow, 2 great guests on @metromorning this am talking about the election in Milton. Our ally @Wendyroberts250 explained why the expensive 10 billion 413 highway would only save 30 seconds off a commute. Sprawl costs us all! Vote tomorrow in Milton. elections.on.ca
About time—Ford’s 413 scheme may now be fictional. No one wanted this 10 billion dollar boondoggle in the first place. Good work to all who exerted pressure to get a federal impact assessment. #StopSprawl #StopThe413

NEW: Premier Ford says his government plans to start construction on Highway 413 in 2025 with "expedited land acquisitions" beginning in the fall. The government has yet to reveal the cost of the highway. #ONpoli
