We call upon the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing to include Brant County in the Greenbelt in order to protect prime farmland, wetlands and the Galt-Paris moraine and natural areas. We ask that the Ministry consider this request from residents, citizen groups and conservation bodies.

    • Wise planning involves making decisions today that will look after our future needs. We must plan, not only with regard to our finances, but also plan regarding our natural resources. The decisions we make today will dictate what kind of world we leave for our children. We need to preserve our farmland. Too much of our farmland has been lost already to rampant development which profits only a very few. We need to maintain local food security. We need to plan for the future.
