Histoire de la promesse
1.03.13 - « [R]enégocier les autres contrats énergétiques [qui ne sont pas en phase de pré-construction] »
14-mai-2020
Le gouvernement de l’Ontario a choisi d’annuler le parc éolien Nation Rise, partiellement construit au sud d’Ottawa, plutôt que de renégocier son contrat. Bien qu’un tribunal ontarien ait annulé la décision du gouvernement conservateur de l’annuler, la promesse est considérée comme rompue.
“An Ontario court has overturned the Conservative government’s decision to cancel the partially built Nation Rise wind farm south of Ottawa. The company behind the wind farm filed an application for judicial review in December after Environment Minister Jeff Yurek revoked its environmental approval, citing concern for the welfare of local bats. But Yurek lacked the legal authority to do so and either misunderstood or ignored key evidence showing bats wouldn’t be at risk, the Ontario Superior Court found, outlining a long list of errors in the minister’s move to cancel the project.”

“Ontario’s Environment Minister has cancelled a $200-million wind farm south of Ottawa — one almost fully constructed — because the giant turbines pose a threat to nearby bat populations. In a Dec. 4 letter, Minister Jeff Yurek said he’s revoking the approval given to the Nation Rise Wind Farm, which has already erected a number of the 29 planned turbines in a rural area near the villages of Crysler and Finch in the Township of North Stormont.”

Ontario cancels nearly-built $200M wind farm over threat to bat populations
19-nov.-2019
“Provincial documents show the Ford government spent more than $230 million to cancel renewable energy projects that included a partially-built wind farm in a cabinet minister’s riding. […] The associate minister of energy, Bill Walker, said the province didn’t need the power from the White Pines project but didn’t deny the cost of the cancellation.”
