There is a co-ordinated land review process going on right now with four key land use plans that are simultaneously being reviewed: the Greenbelt, Oak Ridged Moraine Conservation Plan, Greater Horseshoe Growth Plan and Niagara Escarpment Plan.
The future of land use in Ontario hinges on the recommendations of the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (MMAH) which will be guided - or at least impacted by feedback from the public. Therein lays the key to how much political will is put behind drafting good land use policy: does it matter to people / voters / consumers?
