Ian Hanna, redux

by Dianne Saxe on November 3, 2009

On October 19, I wrote about Ian Hanna, the Big Island resident who is suing for an injunction to block the Ministry of Environment from issuing any renewable energy approvals for wind projects. Such an injunction would prevent the construction of almost all new commercial wind projects. Based on this, I drew a conclusion about Mr. Hanna’s support of or opposition to commercial wind energy.

I suppose it is a sign of the powerful emotions that surround wind projects that I promptly received a letter from his lawyer citing the Libel and Slander Act. In response to this threat, I have removed four non-essential words from the October 19 post.

I strongly disagree with Mr. Hanna’s lawsuit, but no personal offence was or is intended.

Why would you disagree with something so significant to the health and well-being of human-beings? Are you at all aware of what this lawsuit is about? I am interested as to why you would not be in favour of having un-biased studies completed prior to erecting an INDUSRIAL machine in the backyards of rural-Ontarians? Looking forward to your response.
