Vision

Our vision is a healthy and vibrant Greenbelt that can sustain Ontario’s growing communities through restored and protected natural environments, robust agricultural sectors, thriving rural economies, opportunities for outdoor recreation, and patterns of urban settlement that support the integrity of the Greenbelt.
