Petition

Whereas We the undersigned have concern for Manitoulin Island
And Whereas the health and the well being of all the citizens of Canada is in the public interest as a necessary good
And whereas multiple windfarm sites are being considered by independent developers across Manitoulin,
Therefore we the undersigned call upon all governing councils of Manitoulin to reject any proposals for the erection of wind turbines on Manitoulin until such time as it can be demonstrated that all reasonable concerns regarding the health, safety, planning, setback requirements, taxes, royalties, assessments, legal rights, liability, electrical infrastructure, decommissioning, aesthetics, lifestyle and environmental impact from the construction of wind towers on Manitoulin have been addressed.

Great Spirit does not want turbines.

Gary Foreman,
Windmill permits should not be granted unless all ajacent land owners have been consulted and given their approval !

Doug and Louise Musselwhite,
The negative environmental and human impact of this windfarm proposal is potentially staggering. Everything possible must be done to stop this before it's too late. This proposed windfarm is not so much about green power as it is about greed and personal gain.

dave and theresa mcdowell,
wind farms are another political scam ,the government throws a "green" bone at the voting masses at the little peoples expense,wind farms are absolutely impossibly "green"

2011 is coming , vote for the party that will repeal the green act, and return democracy back to the people.

I believe that Manitoulin should produce only that amount of windpower required by its residents (No megaprojects!!),that we should study what other countries with windpower experience have done, especially with respect to health concerns, size of generators and setbacks. We should also remember the 4 r's. Some of us Recycle and Reuse. But let's not forget Reduce (our demand for energy) and Refuse.

More study is required. The liberal push to overlook areas of concern will be remembered in the next provincial election. Lets deal with the current concerns before we rush headlong into a wall. We are not test animals. Lets hear more from citizens that have been affected. They will provide 1st hand knowlede of the situation.

xxxxxxxx,
Studies should also be done on the effects on wildlife such as dear and waterfowl.
