In a Global News exclusive, the federal government may have the ammunition it needs to derail Premier Doug Ford’s controversial plan to develop portions of Ontario’s Greenbelt, documents reveal.

A briefing note prepared in March for Canada’s Minister of Environment and Climate Change lists 29 at-risk species that live — or are likely to live — on the previously protected lands.

The birds, reptiles, mammals and insects protected by federal laws could be used by Ottawa to force Ontario to slow or abandon its plan to build thousands of homes on land removed from the Greenbelt.
