Question: 1 / 895

Certain areas of Ontario are protected under the Greenbelt Plan. Which of the following is NOT one of them?

The Niagara Escarpment

The Oak Ridges Moraine.

Various environmentally sensitive areas in the Greater Golden Horseshoe.

Various environmentally sensitive areas in the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton.

The correct answer indicates an area that is not explicitly included in the designated protections under the Greenbelt Plan. The Greenbelt Plan is designed to protect agricultural land, natural heritage, and water resources in Ontario, particularly around the Greater Golden Horseshoe area.

While the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton does feature some environmentally sensitive areas, they are not classified under the Greenbelt's protection criteria in the same manner as the other listed regions. The Niagara Escarpment, Oak Ridges Moraine, and other regions listed are critical to the Greenbelt's purpose, thereby directly indicating their protection under the plan as they contribute significantly to the environmental health and sustainability of the region.

Wetlands in the Muskoka region and woodlands in the Bruce Peninsula also play key roles in Ontario’s ecological systems and are protected, making them distinct from the areas in the Ottawa-Carleton region that are not designated in the same way.
