After reading Bob Lehman’s letter regarding the Greenbelt development, my takeaway is that he implies the outrage is unwarranted, since populations will keep swelling and all these municipalities will keep spreading and consuming this land, which was only ‘protected’ by the past Liberal government, so the current Progressive Conservatives can now remove those protections.

After all, they only took a small percentage this time.

If they get away with it, they will be back for the rest.

It is, after all, just a boundary, according to Bob. So, no big deal.

He should go explain his reasoning to the people of Ukraine.

I don’t buy Ford’s baloney, or Bob’s, either.
