In the meantime this is what's happening in Ontario:

$1:
Ontario’s wind dictatorship

Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne’s government recently authorized a multinational German corporation to build nine mammoth wind turbines in the Prince Edward County hamlet of Milford.

Why? The project has been dramatically scaled down over the years due to various agreements and environmental rulings.

It could have simply been terminated, but now its huge cost will be paid over 20 years by all Ontario ratepayers, who will be charged above-market prices for electricity generated by these nine unneeded turbines and many others.

Neighbouring residents and wildlife will suffer as well.

This is an example of the disdain demonstrated for rural Ontarians by the Wynne government, and before that, the government of her Liberal predecessor, Dalton McGuinty.

Since the Liberal government’s enactment of the Green Energy Act of 2009, Ontario, in many respects, has become an energy dictatorship.

Last Sunday, an angry crowd of locals braved 50 km/h winds as they marched to the county’s 446-seat Regent Theatre to demand this project’s cancellation.

Ontario’s energy dictatorship is so disdainful of its rural residents, it forces them to accept industrial wind factories near their homes and favours large, foreign corporations over its own citizens...

The usual gang of idiots with their usual responses.
Including the "let's stick our thumb up our ass and wait for fusion".

I'm not sure your accusation your enemies have their blinders on while they patiently wait for fusion is accurate, herb.

$1:
The world’s biggest scientific experiment is on course to become the most expensive source of surplus power.

Components of the 20 billion-euro ($24 billion) project are already starting to pile up at a construction site in the south of France, where about 800 scientists plan to test whether they can harness the power that makes stars shine. Assembly of the machine will start in May. Unlike traditional nuclear plants that split atoms, the so-called ITER reactor will fuse them together at temperatures 10-times hotter than the Sun — 150 million degrees Celsius (270 million Fahrenheit).


https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features ... ce-project

The Global Warming skeptics at WUWT respond:

$1:
According to renewables advocates, renewables will soon be so cheap it won’t be worth pouring more money into researching nuclear fusion.

On one level its funny – advocates of a power concept which doesn’t deliver reliable energy trash talking a power concept which has never been demonstrated to work.

But the more serious issue is how it highlights the risk of putting the lions share of nuclear fusion research effort into ITER.

ITER in my opinion is in big trouble.

The President of France, the country which hosts the ITER project, is a hardline green – in my opinion it is conceivable he will respond to political pressure from renewables advocates, and make life difficult for ITER.

ITER itself is a multi-decade bureaucracy of a project which may never deliver.

Even if ITER delivers, what does it prove? At best it will demonstrate that it is possible to produce nuclear power from fusion – at some enormous premium to existing baseload power technology.

Time to diversify the nuclear fusion research effort.


https://wattsupwiththat.com/2017/10/21/ ... ar-fusion/

It doesn't sound to me like even fusion advocates are 100% on board with the direction the research is headed. Sounds to me like they're getting impatient with the theoretical and starting to want a push for results.

More like they want to bring back coal because our country was strongest when the skies were the colour of puke-yellow, cars got 4 gallons to the mile, and black-lung disease was the leading cause of death for males between the ages of fifty and sixty-five. And there's nothing wrong with putting asbestos in the drywall either!

Yeah I didn't hear too many people moaning about the loss of coal jobs when I was in the Crowsnest. Heard a lot moaning about the mess still there, a couple who thought the miles of windfarms were ugly and a few women mention how nice it was their husbands not only made more servicing them but came home from work clean...
I've never seen anything like the concentration of towers around there.
BC's really lagged on wind, solar and geothermal. Handed out to burn wood scrap and fuck up every river imaginable first...

Know a few off-gridders here, One built a fully solar powered huge home - then they drive a big water truck to the campsite, steal a load of water meant for tourists and park users, drive it home and rig up a couple 2nd hand gas powered pumps to deliver it to the top floor storage bag. Seems to defeat the whole purpose.....

BRAH BRAH:
Wind power is a failed pipe dream, solar power is the future of renewable energy.


They are complimentary, e.g.Wind blows more at night than it does during the daytime when sun is out;, also more likely to be windy when it’s cloudy.

Nice shitpost.

I recently received a PM asking me to not be so mean to you so I’m not going to call you any more names, I’m just going to ignore you from now on; they’re poor quality posts anyway.

If this isn't the pot calling the kettle black, I don't know what is. But, it takes one to know one, and your posts are some of the biggest piles of filthy garbage to grace God's green earth.

Oh, and I already have you on ignore. I just occasionally read your crap so I can laugh hard enough to get that stuck fart out of my rear end. So you see, you DO have a purpose after all!!!

ROTFL
