The winds of discontent were blowing through Kingston last night.
The Grad Club at Queen’s played host to the alternative wind energy concert and radio show.
This event, featuring a performance by Sarah Harmer, was put on by the environmental group – Lake Ontario Waterkeeper – and Queens Radio.
Organizers took aim at the 410-million dollar wind turbine project on Wolfe Island.
They say they don’t object to renewable energy – but say 86 turbines is too many…. and will impact migratory birds.
