‘Developer cronies’

Dear Editor:

A simple question: if Premier Doug Ford believes Ontario needs to prepare for the influx of half a million immigrants in the very near future, (his excuse to grab valuable Greenbelt lands for new housing) that suggests a further burden on our already over-utilized and understaffed and crumbling health infrastructure.

What about fixing the health system first for our existing residents and get the emergency rooms staffed, nurses properly compensated, hospitals upgraded – instead of building unneeded highways over farmland and depriving us of irreplaceable farmland? 

Mr. Ford’s vision of the future of Ontario is apparently directed more toward his developer cronies than the people who considered him fit to be premier building a better Ontario.
