… but you have a chance to comment on review of solar and wind projects
By Nancy Robinson Simcoe Solar Farm Awareness Project November 3 2011
After reading the news articles written about solar and wind projects being reviewed, I searched the Environmental Bill of Rights and found that the Ontario Ministry of Energy is offering the public an opportunity to submit comments on-line. I discovered this link by chance and did not see it advertised anywhere. 
I have included the link below and strongly encourage you to submit your comments and concerns.
Link 
Then click on “Click here to take the survey”
The process began October 31, 2011 and will end December 14, 2011.
You will notice in the Ministry of Energy’s literature that the loss of food producing agricultural land is never mentioned, the cost of the projects seem to be their focus. The government also claims that the FIT programs are focusing on improving Ontarian’s health, the issues of noise and water contamination with their FIT programs also need to be expressed.
Please forward this information to any others who may be interested
