Opposition politicians and other critics have raised concerns about what developers might have known in advance of the government announcing the policy.

As CBC Toronto first reported, property ownership and corporate records showed several developers bought land in recent years that was either wholly or partly in the Greenbelt — meaning they were fully or partially off limits to development at the time of purchase.

Methinks they must have been given some insider knowledge. No wonder this Rice man wishes to avoid questioning.
