Legal Summary:
In December 2014, The Ontario Superior Court of Justice (higher Court) in a ruling indicated that the Environmental Review Tribunal is required to engage in a two step analysis on appeals of wind turbine projects. While an Appellant is required to show that the project will cause harm (step 1), the Tribunal must also be satisfied that the project will NOT CAUSE harm (step 2).
Recent evidence that came out of the appeal of Gary Fohr showed that while the scientific evidence has been unable to conclusively demonstrate harm, the experts for the wind company and the government agreed that there is NO SCIENTIFIC DATA available to demonstrate that wind turbines do NOT CAUSE harm. The Fohr appeal has been joined with our appeal. We, as well as the court, will have the benefit of the Fohr evidence at our appeal.
—————
The provincial government has recently approved more industrial wind projects into Ontario communities who were unwilling hosts. More projects are slated for 2017. On Monday, we have an opportunity to make a difference.
