One of the most exciting things I have been able to accomplish as City Councillor and Chair of the Parks & Environment Committee has been working with the Toronto Environmental Alliance to bring The Don and Humber Rivers Valleys into the Provincial Greenbelt on its 5th Anniversary.
By assuming stewardship of these lands for generations to come, we are recognizing the connection between our natural heritage features and the larger ecosystem that sustains us. It is a fitting legacy for so many Torontonians who have worked so hard to clean up our rivers, preserve our ravines and protect our environment.
Attached is the full news release announcing City Council’s historic decision.
