Ford's Conservatives are refusing to release a document that could reveal how exactly their government chose which parcels of the Greenbelt to bulldoze.
They've denied access to the NDP and now, to investigative journalists.

And their plan to carve up the Greenbelt won't build a single new unit of affordable housing - because it's all about making a handful of insiders very, very rich.

A Ford insider developer bought up undevelopable land for $21.5 million.
Then Ford's Conservatives removed it from the Greenbelt.
That same land could now be worth as much as $725 million.
