Wind Farm telephone survey

Subject: Wind Farm Telephone Survey today---Please participate if calledþ tomhaynespaton


To South West Nova Residents:
If you are called by a company carrying out a survey about "local issues",
please participate.
I have just been called by a New Brunswick company asking if I was willing
to participate in an 8 min. survey about issues affecting my local area. When I
asked details, she said the Digby local area. And then said energy issues.
Only after I agreed to participate and got into the interview did I realize
that the questions were specifically dealing with the "Digby Neck wind farm
issue".
The first question was, what is the most important issue facing Nova Scotia
as a province. Then, the most important issue facing "your local area".
It is a good survey, well balanced. There are even places when you can add
anything else that is important to you, a freely expressed opinion in addition
to multiple choice questions, (agree or disagree, strongly or not...) Also, she
let me go back and change answers when I heard the following questions.
Does anyone know who would be footing the bill for this survey?
Cheers,
Tom

Digby, July 29 2009

Dear Madam/Sir,

Yesterday I came especially to Digby Neck to do the whale watching tour: nature is so beautiful and unspoiled here. I live in Belgium, Europe where nature is gone.

I do not know if the people of Canada realize what a treasure they have: beautuful nature with lakes and rare animals.

I hope if I visit Canada again, it will still be there.

Best Regards,
