I watched it and I thought it was very informative, well done. I think how it was presented the “WIND INDUSTRY” can not dispute the facts. Even to get this far with info on main stream media is great success in my opinion. Well, I guess they could dispute because if you pay anyone enough you can get them to say anything.

I think it should have been called “Part one….in a new miniseries, because it only scratched the surface of the whole myriad of problems and issues surrounding the windscam. Whether the windscammers and windweasels watch or not doesn’t matter, because they know the truth anyway, people have been writing it and screaming it at them for a long time. It is the uninformed people who vote, and make stupid statements like “air passing through blades can’t hurt anyone,” who need to see these types of programs. The very least anyone with any sort of conscience could say is, “at least give those innocent victims a setback far enough not to cause them grief, and having to leave their own homes for relief.” That is just pathetic that it has been allowed to go this far!

I thought it was a fair report but the underlying premise that wind is doing something towards our energy issues is still prevalent throughout the program. Until the scam can be revealed, i.e. how wind does nothing towards the reduced use of fossil fuels, the reduction of GHG emissions, nothing towards providing “green” jobs that don’t atrophy jobs in other sectors, harms our environment etc. there will be a strong faction of pro-wind activists, who have the funding, and who will continue the spin. Until the majority of Ontarians can relate directly to the fact that this is affecting them as well as the unfortunate residents who are living beside the turbines, I’m afraid nothing will change. Reveal the scam!!
