Difficulties at Boralex Gengrowth Amherstburg Wind Facility in Amherstburg Ontario
Danai is just one of hundreds of residents in Ontario who are having real problems because the McGuinty Liberal government allowed the wind energy corporations to site turbines too close to homes. Already over a dozen families have had to abandon their homes or be bought out with gag orders.
Amherstburg Council (at the time) despite serious warnings, did nothing to properly investigate this development. Boralex and/or Gengrowth are denying any responsibility or liability. The Ministry of Environment is taking complaints but simply files them away because they admit they don’t have the equipment and/or know-how to actually enforce the Certificate of Approvals they issue for wind projects. The Green Energy Act strips citizens and municipalities of any power. These laws makes it impossible to get any recourse from the wind companies by residents negatively affected. The average homeowner would have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to even begin to seek restitution.
David Libby lives in the once quiet area near Ridgetown, Ontario. 50 wind turbines have since started up, and the noise from these machines is now affecting his health. No form of government will help him, nor protect him. This is the very real, and upsetting reality that is hitting rural Ontario residents over and over again, with politicians turning a blind eye so that they can continue their very destructive energy program.
