Letter: Group opposing windmills makes request of MLA Duncan

The following letter was sent to Weyburn-Big Muddy MLA and Crown Investments minister Dustin Duncan, in regard to the proposed Enbridge wind turbines project.

(The following is a letter sent to Weyburn-Big Muddy MLA and Crown Investments minister Dustin Duncan, in regard to the proposed Enbridge wind turbines project.)

As you enter the final months of your career in provincial politics, please consider the negative effects the proposed wind turbine project for the RM of Weyburn and the RM of Griffin is having and will have on your constituents.

This proposed project and its roll-out is causing so much heartache and turmoil for residents of an area that includes Weyburn, Hume, Griffin, Ralph and Halbrite, that we would ask you to reconsider and pause this and all other planned wind projects until proper consultation and provincial guidelines can be put in place.

These wind turbines would negatively alter and impact the landscape the residents of your constituency for years to come.

This project has the potential to be a huge hardship and financial burden to all residents and taxpayers of Saskatchewan.

Your constituents will not remember of any of the accomplishments such as the new hospital for Weyburn, the health centre in Radville or the improvements to Highway 39.

Those will be forever tarnished or even forgotten by this one last unwanted project in your constituency.

You have the ability and tools necessary to pause this and all similar proposed projects in Saskatchewan until proper consultation and provincial guidelines can be put in place.

In closing, we would ask you to consider, is this project that is causing so much hurt and divide in your constituency really the legacy you want to leave?
