An ill wind that blows no good "Excellent article, except for one glaring error.
"people on the other side of the Atlantic appear to like them"
That is completely erroneous and is something the wind industry loves to mislead us with. There are over 10000 anti-wind websites"

SPECIAL TO THE BANNER LISTOWEL – The Ben Binning Memorial Golf Tournament (BBMT) started three years ago as a fundraiser hosted by Sinclair Construction to raise money for Ben Binning, who was battling leukemia, his fiancée Lindsay and son Riley. Binning was a tradesman at Sinclair Construction, and a friend of the Sinclairs. In August 2010, just days before the golf tournament, he lost his battle. Not knowing what to do and with a sold-out event, organizers proceeded with the tournament, which turned out to be both difficult and positive. Over the next three years, the tournament continued and that is how the BBMT became what it is today – a memorial golf tournament honouring an amazing young man. Sinclair Construction no longer hosts it, but they are still a big part of it along with Binning’s family and friends.
