The Ontario NDP is requesting a value-for money audit and assessment of the financial and environmental impacts of the government’s amendments to:

  • Municipal official plans such as Hamilton, Ottawa, Waterloo, York, Peel, Niagara, Peterborough, Halton, and Wellington.
  • Minister’s Zoning Orders and ministerial orders under section 34.1 of the Planning Act.

The Ontario NDP made a similar value-for-money audit request into the Greenbelt, which led to the explosive August 9th report that lead to several high-profile resignations in Ford’s inner circle.
