Activists fighting industrial wind turbine projects in rural Lambton County are taking their message to Sarnia residents at a public meeting July 31.Continue reading at the Sarnia Observer
Ingrid Willemsen, a member of We're Against Industrial Turbines - Plympton-Wyoming (WAIT-PW), said it's organizing the town hall meeting at Sarnia's Imperial Theatre, 7 p.m., along with Conservation of Rural Enniskillen (CORE) and the Middlesex-Lambton Wind Action Group (MLWAG)."
The groups are fighting plans to build wind turbines in Plympton-Wyoming, Lambton Shores, Enniskillen Township, Warwick Township and neighbouring Middlesex County.
"Our focus is just to educate Sarnia, because we think that's where the voters are, where the taxpayers are, where the people who kind of don't think they're affected are," Willemsen said.
The meeting will include presentations by Parker Gallant, a retired banker and a contributor to the Financial Post, as well as others speaking about the impact of industrial wind turbines on electricity bills, taxes, future development, wildlife and the life of rural residents.
"All of that is really the guts of our fight," Willemsen said.
