Municipalities have been aggressively urging the federal government to commit more dollars toward infrastructure, noting their communities cannot significantly ramp up homebuilding to match population growth without things like water supply and roads. 

The federal government is spending another $362 million to help provinces and cities find housing for asylum seekers — but Ontario says it's nowhere near enough.

Ontario's municipal affairs and housing minister is expected to introduce legislation today to return parcels of land to the protected Greenbelt.

Ontario's new housing minister says the government has "fully implemented" 21 of its housing affordability task force's recommendations, but his office won't say which ones.

Environmental advocates are outraged by the Ford government’s suggestion that additional land in Ontario’s protected Greenbelt may be reviewed for possible housing development. 

Ontario's auditor general has said the government was not compliant with the law when it passed Bill 197 without consulting the public on environmental changes. Premier Doug Ford responded Tuesday: “I’m going to have to respectfully disagree."
