Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

These massive public funded or subsidized wind farms continuing to come on line (after the negative value is widely known), are a monument to the current kleptocratic order which we have allowed to obliterate, reason, accountability and lawful constraint.
The fact that we have regimes openly, shamelessly, engaging in such enormous displays of hypocrisy and waste is all you need to know about the state of crony government. If you are not in it you are a slave to it – that simple.
HB1168. Pffft. Big efin deal.There is not multi-billions of dollars in bald eagles to be made for leftards,so this bill will go to study(bucks for the cronies),but will be found that the eagle deaths are just being blown out of proportion by the dastardly VRWC,so the bird blenders will go up.
The left are notorious for devising self-defeating policies. It’s all about ego. They feel they are better than X person and have the credentials that don’t stand up to reason to prove it. Yes, wind turbines are useless for energy and are flying-creature killers but they sound good on paper. This is why giving leftists what they want is important. Install wind turbines on their property. Have all their energy needs dependant on them. No back-ups. Make them pay for their removal. After that has been done, remind the left of how many birds they killed. Tell them there is no blood for wind or some such thing.
The sad Earth Hour reality in Ontario; CO2 emissions due to electricity production actually rose during Earth Hour. Check out http://www.ieso.ca “Hourly Generator Output & Capability Report”. All that effort makes great PR, but didn’t accomplish anything.
Sometime before 7 o’ clock, TA Douglas of Mississauga shut down two of their turbines. It was probably down for maintenance until at least 8pm. Then they started them back up, even though we didn’t need their power. Hydroelectric stations were spilling water and shutting down (900MW in 2 hours). They, like about 940 MW of natural gas generators, are on guaranteed contracts. They run whether Ontario needs them or not. Not one of them shut down during Earth Hour. Of course, all of the coal generators are permanently closed now. The kicker is that we were paying the highest Feed In Tariff rates for 1613 MW of wind generation we didn’t need. Come the hottest afternoon in August, we will need them, but the wind won’t be blowing. Saturday night in March when we don’t need them, we are forced to buy.
I have spent nearly 40 years of my life as a compressor mechanic,
Millwright, maintenance mechanic and electrician. Industry relies
on cheap and abundant energy. Liberals, leftists and environmentalists are killing the very engine of the industrial economy!
So, every time I deal with the brain-dead idiots that believe that
an industrial economy can be run on Unicorn farts, I end up with
responses by people who think that PV panels, electric cars, and
windmills will be the salvation of mankind. These inefficient,
discarded technologies, some of which we threw in the crapper
100 years ago, will never be more than a tiny percentage of
total power production, or power savings.
But what is worse, they would not even exist without massive
government subsidies. Anyone who believes otherwise cannot be
reasoned with. They are mind numbed robots who believe in
the myth of global warming and cannot be taken seriously!
There is no such thing as “Renewable energy,” there never has
been. If you want to see proof of the global warming hoax,
do as I did: Stack 9,996-1/2 pennies, and photograph them with
3-1/2 cents in the foreground representing CO2.
3-1/2 parts in 10,000, or 350 PPM. Global warming cannot be
driven by a trace level gas that is less likely to have an effect
on planetary temperatures than my farts!
