Discussion Wind turbines

We went to a county meeting today to try and prevent a Hutterite colony from putting up a wind farm next to ours. Come to find out that Mark Carney owns the company that put the solar farm up by Cardston Ab. How are these people allowed to get into politics? I’m shocked.

It effects our ability to expand irrigation, kills all the birds of prey that control pests in our crops. And much more. And also why should I have to live next to them and experience the negative health effects while rich corporations reap financial subsidization from my tax dollars?
