Ontario’s Integrity Commissioner is recommending that Housing Minister Steve Clark be reprimanded for his role in the province’s contentious Greenbelt land swap, calling it a “rushed and flawed process” marred by a “lack of oversight.”
In a report issued Wednesday, David Wake said Clark failed to properly oversee the process that led to protected Greenbelt lands being selected for housing development, “leading to the private interests of certain developers being furthered improperly.
“Minister Clark’s lack of oversight led to some developers being alerted to a potential change in the government’s position on the Greenbelt, resulting in their private interests being furthered improperly,”
