The report, makes a definitive link between the Premier’s Office, the housing minister, a central political staffer who drove the project, and developers who benefitted from the deal.

The end result: the owners of 15 parcels of land removed from the Greenbelt will see the value rise by $8.3 billion, according to the auditor general.

    If this is a surprise to anyone I would insult their critical thinking. How could that have gone any other way? Obviously that land was going to be more valuable as single family detached homes in a wildly speculative real estate environment and of course developers would know that. Of course these developers would have influence too, they were Ford's base in the 905!
