Wind Concerns Ontario Speaks Out On Death Threats

I have received the following message (reproduced below in its entirety) from the WCO's current president Jane Wilson re the recent threats directed against wind turbine worker Jeff Damen:

WIND CONCERNS ONTARIO DEPLORES THREAT OF VIOLENCE AGAINST WIND COMPANY EMPLOYEE


August 1, 2012
For immediate release

The executive and members of Wind Concerns Ontario were very disturbed by the report of an alleged threat against a wind power developer employee, and are gratified that police are now investigating the incident.

It is our view that even a threat of violence in any form is completely unacceptable and in fact, counter-productive to our objectives. 

Wind Concerns Ontario does not support or condone any action other than calm discussion of the serious issues before us.

Our continuing objective is to make known the facts of large-scale wind power generation when it is placed far too close to people's homes, as is being done in Ontario.
