Email from Simcoe Solar Awareness Project March 21 2012
It’s a Bad FIT for Ontario!
The Wind Industry Barons are blowing into Toronto for the Ontario Feed In Tariff Forum April 3 & 4th  at the Metro Convention Center, 255 Front Street West. Protest Date – Tuesday, April 3rd
Time – gather at 11:30
Speakers – 12:00
Protest March- 12:30
Place – Simcoe Park on Front Street, beside CBC building and opposite Metro Toronto Convention Centre
It is time to stand up for Ontario!
Dalton McGuinty’s  friends will be at the Feedin’ Trough on April 3rd.  One of the notables is George Smitherman, creator of the Green Energy Act which mirrors failed European FIT programs.  Also noteworthy is Mike Crawley,  President of the Federal Liberal Party / President of International Power Canada.  These industry pundents are terrifying Ontario with plans for a potential new reality – wind ghettos.  There is a rogue’s gallery coming to the FIT Forum.  We’ll be there too!
People are coming from all parts of the province!  Identify where you are from.  Arrange a bus or use public transit, subways, Go Trains to Union Station.  See you there.
From the main lobby of Union Station (look for signs to railway and GoTrain station to get to main lobby), exit at Front Street, go west (left) on Front St. past York St. and Lower Simcoe St.  Simcoe Park is about 300 meters further west right next to the CBC building on the north side of Front St.
