Marie, the wind farm boasts of 126 wind turbines producing almost 200 MW of renewable energy. This development is a significant breakthrough for Canada with Ontario having almost 1,200 MW of energy coming from renewables. According to Energy Minister Dwight Duncan, this will help make Ontario a leading wind power producer in Canada.
