Blackburn News
Terraform Power crews are investigating after a wind turbine that’s part of a wind energy project just south of Chatham broke in half.
The turbine is located at the corner of Drake Rd. and 16 Line.
Blackburn News has reached out to the Ministry of Energy and Climate Change, the municipality of Chatham-Kent, and officials with Terraform Power for more details.
Chatham-Kent’s fire chief is at the scene and says it is currently disconnected from the power grid.
Workers are currently putting up safety fencing around the broken turbine and Chatham-Kent police are also stationed there. Read article
Maybe this is a blessing of more to come? Wishful thinking but I ‘am sure the windees will just dish out the money and repair. Maybe there is warranty on the structure? How common is this? Will we ever know?
It seems to have happened overnight, and locals said this morning around 8 AM the area was not cordoned off, no emergency vehicles were there and the wind techs were only just arriving! That lack of response is frightening.
This is the Raleigh project? These projects flip ownership so frequently we haven’t a clue who owns them until a disaster strikes… and then hopefully people know who to call!

In Ireland there was a (supreme?) court decision that called wind turbine projects 30MW or greater, “projects of strategic importance”.
Can anyone find me a link to that ruling. Barbara?
Anyone who can sit back and ignore this reality and the gross injustices that are taking place and not question the criminality is complicit!

Please see the following link from Engineers Journal (Ireland). This is the latest research on infra sound and industrial wind turbines. http://www.engineersjournal.ie/2018/01/23/ilfn-infrasound-low-frequency-noise-turbine-health/
Please note the following published at the end of the above article. Why are Engineers Ireland pointing to a decision made by a government agency in Australia?
“The opinions expressed in this article are the authors’ own and do not represent the views of Engineers Ireland. For details of the Australian Administrative Appeals Tribunal Decision into the effects, if any, of ILFN on human health, please read the following document (PDF): waubra-and-acnc-decision.

Perhaps read from p. 123 to the end p.162.
Recently, this kind of information caught my attention with information from the UN Law Division publications.
Barbara, are you following the work of Charles Ortel? His investigative work is being featured on Jason Goodman’s ‘Crowd Source the Truth’. This man is making many connections that you will recognize from the research you do. They’re following the money trail. Charles Ortel is an expert with this type of work.

I don’t have time to read all these legal documents. I’ve read enough already.
I want to ask why Ireland’s Engineers have deferred to a court ruling outside of Ireland.
By the way, that web site does not appear to be posting any more comments. I sent in two comments and neither has appeared.
Legal frameworks have to be established world-wide.

In Ireland there was a (supreme?) court decision that called wind turbine projects 30MW or greater, “projects of strategic importance”.
Can anyone find me a link to that ruling? Barbara?
Dr. Richard,
I’ll try to find this information.
So far:
IPN / Irish Planning News
Has a number of Irish wind energy court cases listed and “strategic” is included.
http://irishplanningnews.ie/category/green-energy
Ireland has a Renewable Energy Strategic Plan and Ireland is also tied in with the EU Renewable Energy requirements.
In Ireland:
40 MW and greater connect with EirGrid
Less than 40 MW connect with ESB Networks
Large wind projects require one grid connection and smaller wind projects can require many more grid connections.

From the research you’ve sited above on infrasound radiation in homes near industrial wind turbines, these are the words taken from the conclusion: “Noise regulations and guidelines need urgent updating in order to appropriately reflect ILFN levels that are dangerous to human health.”
We already knew about this from the Waubra Foundation because some people did the research and discovered that it confirmed what residents were directly experiencing here in rural Ontario and reporting to all who are responsible.
With the MOECC policy makers refusing to urgently update their siting policies in light of ILFN levels, and with the MOH at a federal level refusing to measure for ILFN levels in peoples’ homes or on their properties, what on earth can we do here in Ontario?
Ages ago our friend taught us that lawyers shouldn’t mess around in tax court. Because taxes pay judges’ salaries.
Recently in Oz an administrative tribunal was tasked with judging weather the Waubra Foundation work constitutes Charity activities. Lots of evidence was reviewed.
For the purposes of the administrators they were satisfied that the adverse effects of living in the environs of industrial wind turbines represent plausible pathways to myriad diseases. Maybe this seems like a no-brainer to you.
Try going back in time. For example, to the year 2009, to the Ontario Legislative Assembly Committee hearings about the green energy and the green economy Act.
Ms. Laurel Broten acting for the Crown apologized to some Ontario victims who’d been forced to leave their homes because of the development and operation of some industrial wind turbines. Specifically Ms. Broten observed “the grief” they had been caused.
Acknowledging that grief hardly scratched the surface …

Everyone needs to see the work of Charles Ortel in exposing the Canadian government’s involvement in massive financial fraud with the Clinton Foundation. This is shocking information and it is all in the public domain.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3lGCyqxVIg
At 2: 28:00 Charles Ortel concludes his investigation into the Canadian tax payer dollars that have been given by our government to the fraudulent Clinton Foundation. As much as 13 billion dollars was given to the Haiti Relief Fund.
Is it possible that this level of corruption is also behind the green financing arrangements for Ontario’s industrial scale wind?
Also, see for yourself how people are exposing the underpinnings of the malevolence that is behind all of this:

If anyone still thinks that reporting harm to the MOECC will lead to protection from harm, think again!
No wonder people give up. The disillusionment and frustration becomes too much to cope with. People are told that if they stop reporting to the SPILL hotline, the MOECC will assume there’s no problem, but even if they do report the harm, they’re not effectively protected from further harm.

You are 100% guaranteed nothing will be done if you stop filing reports. At this point, one needs to think ahead to a day when there may be a new Minister of Environment, who will need to be informed. No reports= no problem. It is irresponsible to advise others to stop filing reports.

Barbara, here is a document that you might find helpful. The information in it is U.S. based. We need to use this information to find out who in Ontario is directly connected to these funding sources and expose the names of the people who are working with these groups.

This is about implementing the Kyoto Protocol in Canada and other countries around the world that also signed the Kyoto Protocol.
The U.S. did not sign the Kyoto Protocol. However, there are other ways of accomplishing this in the U.S. The sub-national level way is just one means and which can be done state by state.
At least some of this has already been looked at.
For example, EarthJustice, US. and connection to Canada has been looked and, some of the foundations.
The U.S. House of Rep. did a minority Report on this topic maybe c. 2014 as well.
The U.S. IRS Form 990s that I have seen use “education” as the objective of these organizations.

Regarding the Delphi Method, the document you’ve linked , Barbara, states that,
“Therefore, during the integration segment, it would be worthwhile to highlight the importance of integrating strategic foresight thinking into the national planning and policy process as an important policy innovation that would help in the implementation of the 2030 agenda.”
Do people realize that the Delphi technique is a means of manipulating the public who attends meetings and consultations, thinking that they are doing so because they have an opportunity to voice their concerns and protect their community?
This manipulation is being used so that the government agents who are running the meetings, can say they “consulted with the public’ before ramming their preplanned decisions on the public, despite opposition.
Nothing can be proven until something happens.
Here’s an explanation of how the Delphi technique works to ‘manufacture consent’.

Barbara, you have in the past posted research about the Tides Foundation.
Are you aware of this information?
https://capitalresearch.org/article/tides-legal-laundering-who-is-drummond-pike-one/
It would be helpful to know who in Canada has received funding from the Tides Foundation and how this funding is related to the IPCC deception and industrial scale wind turbines.
Also, financial investigator, Charles Ortel on ‘Crowdsource the Truth’ with Jason Goodman has connected the Tides Foundation to the illegal activities of the Clinton Charitable Tax Foundation.

A post for every turbine to topple in Ontario …
Stay on the leading edge with your research as information comes out through alternative media sources.
Things are happening behind the scenes that are related to industrial scale wind turbines and the IPPC deception that was used to rationalize their intrusion into rural communities.
Ontarians are not alone in this present situation. Appears to be international in scope at least in the case of wind energy.

@delphi @Wind Concerns Ontario Inc.
“WCO expresses concern over CPP purchase of Ontario wind farms”
In the Comments section:
April 5, 2018 at 2:30 pm, John posts:
“NextTerror [sic] is getting out before the whole system collapses and we as citizens, and supposedly “beneficiaries”, of CPP get to “pay the price again” to clean up the mess. We’ll get to compensate, with our tax dollars, those suffering ill effects from McGuinty’s boondoggle if and when the truth ever comes out. Meanwhile, NextTerror walks away with even more of our money! “Take the money and run” is their mantra!”
Wind Concerns Ontario replies:
April 5, 2018 at 5:50 pm
“NextEra has made the best business deal for themselves, taking the maximum value out of the contracts while they can, getting their debt assumed by the CPPIB, and getting paid to manage their own projects. There is no sign that anything is collapsing; … ”
Do you agree with “Wind Concerns Ontario” that “there is no sign that anything is collapsing”?
“Collapsing” could refer to the financial security of the CPP fund itself?
On the other hand, “wind” is another matter?
To begin with, IWT projects are not long term investments for the developers?
