On Monday, June 15, at approximately 8:20am, our Mayor Higgins of North Frontenac was interviewed on CBC regarding the rejected wind turbine project. He spoke on behalf of the citizens who voted NO.
The amount of money offered to the township would equal the revenue from approximately 20 new cottages built over 10 years, which is going to happen anyway, with peace and no problems.
The big picture here is not electricity but land. Once you have lost your land, the funds will go into a US hedge fund through a US company, to a US bank. Please look at the bigger picture.
Thank you, Mayor Higgins for representing the citizens, this is being a good mayor. Remember this issue at the next election. Democracy is still alive, and we need more of it.
