Madam Speaker, in the absence of independent science-based studies on the long-term effects on the health of residents and wildlife of Renfrew County because of the close proximity of wind turbines, the petitioners call upon Parliament to reject any funding applications for federal government assistance for the erection of wind towers in Renfrew County until such time as it can be demonstrated that all reasonable concerns regarding health, safety, planning, taxes, assessment, legal rights and environmental impact the construction of wind towers will have on the people of Renfrew County have been addressed.
