The minister and the companies allegedly violated the law for failing to take ‘reasonable care’ to prevent the contamination of a home’s well water as wind farms were installed

TORONTO — Ontario’s environment minister, government staff and three wind companies have been charged with offences under the province’s Environmental Protection Act.

“When the pile driving and construction of the wind turbines started on our shallow aquifer our drinking water slowly turned black and is now unsafe to consume, cook with or even bathe in,” she says in court documents. “This issue continues today and we are not the only family affected by this devastation.”

“When you put up very large wind turbines that are 100 metres high, they require very large foundations,” he said. “Once they started developing these projects it became clear they were interfering with the drinking water supplies for many of the residents.”

Alberta and Saskatchewan are busy building them!! They don’t supply much energy and I don’t think they have much of a life-span

Where are all the Liberals bitching and complaining about this...oh wait...it happened under Wynne....never mind, that explains it!

Generations will pay for the damage Liberals did to Ontariowe. Now they run the Prime Minister's Office. greenenergyscam carbontaxscam TrudeauMustGo

The Liberals and their insiders ripped off Ontarians. onpoli

The liberals caused this by promoting this horrible form of generation then not listening to public complaints about it.. It should be the former government officials being charged.

Instead of fines and jail time, wouldn’t everyone be better served that the companies repair these ppls wells? Or drill new ones? Install filtration systems? How were they supposed to know ppl would lose their water?

I would hope that's the former Ontario Energy Minister under the Wynne Liberals being charged as this was done under his watch.
