2 polls suggest Ontario Greenbelt saga eroding Doug Ford's political support
The swirling controversy over how Premier Doug Ford's government removed protected land from Ontario's Greenbelt to build housing is weakening voter support for the premier and his Progressive Conservative party, according to a pair of new opinion polls released this week.
Both polls — one conducted by the Angus Reid Institute and the other by Abacus Data — show recent drops in approval for Ford and the Progressive Conservatives. Pollsters for both firms believe the Greenbelt saga is a key factor.
"The Greenbelt has been the issue that has dominated headlines over the last several weeks," said Shachi Kurl, president of the non-profit Angus Reid Institute.
"It's hard to decouple that from these findings."

Anyone following this circus knows well that they removed the old incompetent housing minster and brought a new minister who now will take MORE lands from green built. You all are being played. Worst part, not even 10% of developments will have affordable housing, which is how you know the gov. of Ontario is run by the corrupt Doug tub of shit Ford..

That doesn't matter so much. Even if the people who live there are wealthier, it means they are not living somewhere else, and those who aren't so well off can live in those places.
If you're not so well off chances are you don't want to live out in the middle of nowhere anyway. Middle of nowheres cost a lot more to live in.
