They don't even try to hide their close friendships with developers.

I guess it wouldn't be so bad if not for the fact that the PCs clearly cannot separate business from friendship, too. We do need development in the province. But not at the cost of the Greenbelt. Nor do we need things like selling off highways or healthcare for profit.

Agreed. The actual research shows we have enough room for 2mil homes spread across the golden horseshoe without needing to dip into the greenbelt, something specifically designed to restrict urban sprawl and promote densification.
