O’LEARY CORNER – Donald Harper says his property in Norway used to be peaceful. That changed after a V-90 wind turbine was erected near his home.

Harper was among about 140 West Prince residents who attended a meeting at O’Leary Corner to express their opposition to wind energy development in their communities.
