I think it is absolutely ridiculous and defies logic that this turbine project should be cancelled. In an era where climate change is the most pressing issue facing humans, to not pursue renewable options is irresponsible at best.

I do not support to disruption of the White Pines Project. Prince Edward County needs renewable Energy. I have been born and raised there and am devastated to see these slated for dismantling.
Dear Mr Romic,
Please act promptly to stop Regulation 013-3835.
I in no way support the loss of job opportunities and turning our backs on clean and renewable energy, which is such an important intiative.

Given the urgency to ameliorate climate change, given that the project is already partially built, given that we will need the renewable energy, given that the government has no other plans to reduce climate change, given that this sends the message to businesses not to trust the Ontario government

The work to establish and follow the trend in energy costs by type has continued on several fronts.
This article concludes that renewables are now the lowest cost options, with the prospect that this will continue and become the best and cheapest energy available.

I believe it makes sense to finish the White Pines project as four or the nine wind turbines are already complete, with the remainder expected to be installed within the next few weeks and testing scheduled for the following month.

Dear Premier Ford,
I urge you to allow the White Pines Wind Project to be completed so that it can produce clean energy into the grid as we need to produce this kind of energy in Ontario to combat climate change.

Canada should be a world leader in protecting the environment. We should be an example by switching to renewable energy. We need to stop depending on fossil fuels. Let’s keep our land glorious!
Doug Ford ran on a promise to keep Ontario open for business, but his government’s first piece of legislation, "The White Pines Wind Project Termination Act", would terminate this project that has been nearly 10 years in the making, at a cost of over $100 million to taxpayers.

To my Elected Officials,
The closing of this wind farm is irresponsible given the dire warnings from the scientific community.
Furthermore how can the premier boast that Ontario is open for business when we don't honour our contracts.

The White Pines Wind Project is effectively complete.
Paying money to dismantle something working isn't the sunk cost fallacy, it's some other fallacy.

Keep the wind turbine project going. It helps to reduce smog in Ontario and provides needed electricity supply to the community grid!
This is a short-sighted decision by the the Ontario Conservative Provincial government that is myopic and lack care for citizens of Ontario.

Just over a month ago, the United Nations released a special climate report outlining the need for urgent change to limit global warming. This report states "Human-induced warming reached approximately 1°C above pre-industrial levels in 2017, increasing at 0.2°C per decade".

I am shocked and distressed that the PC government is closing the White Pines Wind Mill Project that is near completion. The climate is warming at an ever increasing rate. The polar ice caps ad glaciers are melting and rising sea levels are wiping out costal areas.
