The Dexter government is moving ahead full steam, promoting wind power generation with little or no input from the public. That comment from the MLA for Argyle, Chris d'Entremont. He has had a meeting with the province's Energy minister Charlie Parker and Environment minister Sterling Belliveau. d'Entremont says if nothing else, the ministers received some idea of the extent of the concerns of his constituents. He says his constituents are worried about the possible effects of large wind turbines on people who live near them.
Municipal council in Argyle will hold an emergency public meeting tonight to discuss a proposed wind farm project there. The environment minister, Sterling Belliveau. must decide by mid-August on whether to move ahead with an environmental assessment of the project.
