The truth about the great wind power fraud

They just might be. But, when faced with load-shedding, statewide blackouts and rocketing power prices, their purported fervour for nature’s wonder fuels […]
Pundits have predicted that the next major war will be sparked over water. In Ontario just such a battle is (pardon the pun) well underway.
