The devolution of federal property in Ottawa.

 Environment Minister Jim Prentice refused to give the City of Ottawa 13,700 acres of the Greenbelt for housing. ("Ottawa Greenbelt Development Under Review" June 17, 2008--"The City of Ottawa has identified more than 13,700 acres of the Greenbelt that could be developed."). "Canada can build more homes 'without getting rid of Greenbelts' Poilievre says." August 23, 2023. Josh Pringle and Bill Carroll, CFRA, The Morning Rush.

The former Agriculture Canada Research Farm bordered by Hunt Club Road, Woodroffe Avenue, Fallowfield Road and Greenbank Road. 

Jacques Greber did not want the province of Ontario or the City of Ottawa to have any involvement with the Greenbelt. House of Commons October 26, 2009 Evidence Al Speyers, Alliance to Save Our Greenbelt: "Jacques Greber felt that the only way to have a Greenbelt and keep it was that the most senior level of government in Canada would have to establish it, maintain it, keep it and preserve it. Cities are essentially vehicles for development. Their election campaigns are over 90% financed by the development community."
