Doug Ford clearly can’t be trusted with the Greenbelt

March 31, 2025

QUEEN'S PARK — Ontario Greens Leader Mike Schreiner made the following statement in response to news from the Integrity commissioner:

“Today’s news once again proves what we already knew: Doug Ford clearly can’t be trusted with the Greenbelt.

Time and time again he has put the profits of billionaire land speculators over the people of Ontario.

And now we learn that the Integrity commissioner found an ex-Ford staffer repeatedly failed to comply with lobbying rules when trying to get a client’s land removed from the Greenbelt.

Let’s be clear: the buck stops with the Premier. This is yet another blatant violation of ethics in his attack on the environment.

Ontarians deserve a government with transparency and integrity and one that will protect the places we love – not sell it off to the highest bidder.”
