Have you heard the lie?
Check out the Sprawling Lie website and share the audio clips with your networks. The Ontario Government, some land speculators and developers are misleading residents and home-owner hopefuls. Don't let them fool you!

Listen to Councillors Fogal and Best discuss the Burton/Meed Ward motion and their amendment
Then Chris Krucker, (National Farmers Union Rep for Hamilton and Halton Region) & Phil Pothen (Land Use Planning Lawyer - Environmental Defence) give their professional perspectives.
Why we don't need to grow the urban boundary in Halton:
There's already enough land approved for continued urban growth in Halton
Once it's gone, it's gone for good: Prime agricultural land cannot be recaptured or relocated
Suburban sprawl costs us all: Low density housing costs taxpayers, while gentle density saves money
Low density development lines private pockets and depletes public coffers
Suburban Sprawl costs us ALL!
STOP SPRAWL HALTON'S goal is to promote Gentle Density to save tax dollars and municipal resources!
