#FirstParliament Master Plan consultation is underway & it’s the final meeting as @CreateTO @CityPlanTO wraps up this multiyear process. The future of this historic site is unclear as the Province has confirmed they’ll sell the land to a developer to offset cost of Ontario Line.

Trust is critical in every relationship, especially when communities and billions of public dollars are at stake. Metrolinx AND Infrastructure Ontario are proving themselves to be unworthy of trust if they bully and bulldoze over everyone. #FirstParliament #SaveTheFoundry

Metrolinx bullies both contractors and communities, but the difference is that contractors have the resources to access the courts and the ability to say "we just won't bid" when Mlx tries to unload costs onto them. They are not called misinformed NIMBYs.

The recent Federal transit funding announcement (minus streetcars) gave Ford more ammo to blow up our Official Plan. The endless MZOs & upzoning by Ford in the name of transit gave developers more money and power. #onpoli #cdnpoli #FirstParliament https://t.co/bKIuivCOhv

Since @FordNation can't be trusted to protect Ontario's public interest, we shouldn't be surprised to see the Feds stepping in to provide environmental oversight. I invite the Canadian Gov't to take a similar approach on the national historic site at #FirstParliament. #TorCen

BREAKING: The federal government has decided it will step in and take over the environmental assessment of the Ford government's Highway 413 project. This is huge news. Many believe this decision will effectively kill the project as the fed EA is much more rigorous. #onpoli

Pink Helmet TO @PinkHelmetTO

It took 20 years for the City & community to put the historic #FirstParliament lands into public ownership and control. Now the Province wants to flip it to a condo developer by August. Does @fordnation value nothing? #onpoli #RespectLocalPlanning https://t.co/HG49A5fHcg

Very important to sign up for this Townhall meeting to hear more about the Ford govt's plans for the First Parliament Site- The govt says they will do Public Consultations - we need to make sure that they do have Public Consultations. #FirstParliament https://t.co/3vEd8jEgw2

Under the Ford government, land use planning in Ontario is rife with conflict. The onslaught of development pressure feels unending between developer-fueled MZOs, heritage demolition, threat of expropriation & half-truths. #KeepOrganizing #FirstParliament #RespectLocalPlanning

Outstanding news! Thank you Councillor @kristynwongtam for sharing. This has been a priority advocacy issue for us and this site is important to ALL Canadians - we now need to ensure the work of promoting and educating audiences about the #FirstParliament site is achieved.
