While no one explicitly told developers that Ontario planned to open up the protected Greenbelt for housing last year, the government telegraphed that message to builders through actions - and silence, the province's integrity commissioner found.
“Communication ... can take many forms. It is not confined to the spoken word,” Wake wrote in the report that described housing minister's chief-of-staff, Ryan Amato, receiving packages from developers and later seeking further information.
De Gasperis, the CEO of TACC Group of Companies, had for decades wanted to develop homes on one of his properties - known as Cherrywood - but it was in the Greenbelt, Wake wrote. “This suggested to him there might be an opportunity to revisit the government's Greenbelt policy,” Wake wrote.The opportunity to speak with Amato came on Sept. 14, 2022, at a dinner at the Building Industry and Land Development conference.
“The government is looking at everything at this moment and have not made any decisions,” Amato told her.“He didn't say yes, he didn't say no,” she told the integrity commissioner.
