The gauntlet's been thrown. Quebec just announced they are building 8 wind farms by 2012 that will produce 1000 megawatts of electricity, versus Alberta's current paltry 201 megawatts. Are we gonna take that Ralph? We've got some of the windiest spots in the country! Come on dude, let's build wind farms capable of 2000 megawatts! Then we could sell more natural gas to those greedy Americans...
Incredibly, Quebec's future 1000 megawatt farm will still only contribute 3% to the province's needs. Denmark gets 16% of its power from wind, Germany 6%.
