The police tried to move this group of peaceful protesters who stood outside the Royal Botanical Gardens to protest Doug Ford and his myriad of cuts to programs/environmental protections.
One Protestor said, “Oh no you don’t , we have our MEMBERSHIP CARDS.”

No "correcting" process, we should be expanding, not contracting the Greenbelt.
The Auditor General was CLEAR: reverse the decision.
The fix was in. Doug Ford can repair the damage — not only by demanding
@SteveClarkPC
quit, but by correcting a corrupted process. Which means cancelling the outcome of that flawed process. My latest on the Greenbelt bog:

Ford has had a plan to sprawl on farmland since he was elected. He’s made changes to land policy to set the stage for sprawl. He lowered densities, eliminated the need to prioritize farmland for the public good, and is decimating environmental protections.
