Anyone who thought Ontario’s opposition leaders would relent after Premier Doug Ford announced a reversal of his government’s Greenbelt land swaps was proven wrong on Monday.
Ontario Green Leader Mike Schreiner was the first to take the podium, where he re-iterated his call for the province’s integrity commissioner to launch an “independent, public inquiry” into the Ford government’s handling of the Greenbelt.
“I believe the breach trust and contraventions of legislative tradition at this assembly makes a public inquiry necessary and I’, looking forward to the response from the integrity commissioner,” Schreiner told reporters.
