MP Pierre Poilievre sent along this clip for us; it’s a documentary that aired last week on TVA, on the situation with wind power generation developments in Quebec.

It is in French, but here are some of the high points:

-the government noise regulations are that turbines cannot exceed 40 decibels; however, some have been measured at 55+

-“greed” is cited as a factor in the turbine development

-legal actions are ongoing, and citizens are requesting independent noise testing

The link to the documentary is here.
