Preserving Juno Beach

May 29, 2013 · 0 Comments

There is a proposal to construct wind turbines on Juno Beach.
The French Government is asking for input from Canada but I feel many Canadians are not aware of the situation. I have written to my MP, MP and Veteran’s Canada but have little feedback from them. I feel that to create the wind turbines would be a travesty to what went on there, to the many men who sacrificed so much of themselves. There may be many others from Aurora who feel the same way: frustrated at how to make contact when the French Government does want our feedback!
I know many others who would want to be aware of this situation in France. Juno Beach needs to be declared a World Heritage Site preserved from future local development. France has already built condos on the edge of the beach.
As such, I have created a petition to preserve Juno Beach from wind farm development. It can be signed at tinyurl.com/juno-beach-survey.
