Feds warn of Rouge Park plan
Federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault says a new study examining the effect of development on biodiversity and speciesat-risk in a massive national park could shut down part of Ontario’s plan to build housing in the area. Guilbeault says the study will be done as soon as possible on Rouge National Urban Park in the Greater Toronto Area. He says collaboration with Ontario has been impossible on environmental concerns over proposed housing developments. Premier Doug Ford says the study will not slow down housing plans for nearby lands the province removed from the protected Greenbelt.
