Ian Hanna v. Ontario – Legal Action update
As many are aware, in October 2009, with the support of a great many people, a major legal challenge was launched under my name to the Green Energy Act – specifically to the parts that deal with siting and setbacks of Industrial Wind Turbines (IWTs) in relation to people’s homes.

After nearly two decades of research we are in no doubt that industrial windpower does far more damage to the environment than any benefit it purports to bring. The reality of the wind industry is a far cry from the superficially attractive concept of electricity generated by . . .
