Britain’s political betters have set it up for one enormous gamble. Britain is wagering its entire economic future on its – out of control – wind power debacle.
Back in January last year, The Economist reported on the INSANE cost of delivering offshore wind power – where generators are guaranteed obscene returns – being able to charge “three times the current wholesale price of electricity and about 60% more than is promised to onshore turbines.”

Yes. On several occasions, in the media, I called for a halt to further wind turbine construction before definitive Health Canada studies were completed; along with Bev Shipley MP (Lambton-Kent-Middlesex) I held media availabilities for this purpose in the municipalities of Chatham-Kent and North Middlesex.

Ontario wind turbines would stop spinning for good — saving money in the long run, despite up-front cancellation costs — if he became premier, says the Tory leadership candidate from Southwestern Ontario.
“It’s time to end this ripoff,” said MPP Monte McNaughton, one of five candidates for the Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership and the only one from the southwest, where many of wind farms are located.
Please re-read Christine’s commitment letter to rural Ontario from February and I believe you will see that she is committed to standing with us.
For many years, I have been aware that the economic impact of the Liberal’s failed green-energy policy has been devastating to our province, and in particular to our manufacturing sector and rural Ontario. I have also been aware that their policies were dividing rural communities and driving rifts between friends, neighbours and even families.
