Welcome to Municipality of Kincardine Ontario,known for our beautiful sunsets on Lake Huron. The place people spend the weekend or the summer. Soon we will be known as the land of the giant wind turbines. People will find other places to live and play. People will remark that Kincardine was such a nice place, before the wind farms ruined the area. They will also feel sorry for us when they look at the visual destruction of the area. The Lake Huron shoreline will stand as testament to the huge waste of taxpayers money. The province will get a paltry,unstable,amount of electricity and we get our landscape destroyed.
Think about us in our windmill prison as you drive by the place you used to visit. We’ll miss ya!
Energy Minister Dwight Duncan you must know by now that turning rural Ontario into an industrial site is not the answer to our energy needs.
The question is, why do you continue on this destructive path.
Canwea(canadian wind energy association) has lobbied the government and its establishments to promote wind power throughout Canada.
They refuse to debate their propaganda .
Intermittent wind power is backed heavily with gas that you can call it gas power backed up by wind. 2%-5% efficient?
The main reason for wind power is to help create a carbon trading network .
In Ontario the general size of surveyed lots is approx. 100 acres or 800m by 400m.
The ministry of the environment states there should be no impact over 1000m .
Studies show otherwise 1500m.
Canwea would not be able to promote these wind farms to safe distances becausee the general size of properties are too small.
Canwea promotes 350metres to a house.a 121m high 1.65 huge megawatt generator.
In my area there is now several families unable to live in their own home due to stray voltage and noise .
The Ontario goverment continues to say that the problem is all in these Canadians heads.There is no problem!
We demand better!
