Remember when moving 2 gas plants for $230M was the "biggest scandal in Ontario's history"?
This is Doug Ford giving away EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS to a small handful of developers.
People need to go to jail.
Ontario is a hopelessly corrupt province and the Ford government is the chief culprit.
The Greenbelt scandal ought to bring down the government -- and then some. There must be serious consequences for those involved in this utter, massive, disaster.

How can this Ontario Place scam get any more corrupt?

One of 19 MZOs Ford issued for his developer friends is for Craft Development Corp.

-is VP of PC Ontario Fund
-donated to Ford's leadership campaign

Colin nails it: Ford has changed his story multiple times. First he reviewed these properties on a map, but then he only found out the day they voted, but then he agreed that developers got special access, but then he says no developers got special treatment.
Premier Doug Ford told the Auditor General that he didn’t participate in the Greenbelt extraction land selection and didn’t know about it until they were already picked by a political staffer.
