Canadas wind energy industry is growing by leaps and bounds and thats great news for Canadians who research shows are strongly in favor of wind energy. 2005 will be remembered as the year Canada first started to seriously exploit its massive wind energy potential.

With Canada's installed wind energy capacity expected to grow by more than 70 per cent this year, it is clear that growth in Canada's wind energy production is rapid and accelerating.

With the vast majority of wind energy development taking place in rural areas, wind energy projects are also providing real and ongoing economic benefits to both rural landowners through lease payments and rural municipalities through increased tax revenues.

While the growth we are seeing in Canada is both rapid and significant, we cannot lose sight of the fact that wind energy continues to develop much more quickly in other countries. With Canada's unparalleled wind resource, we can still do more to maximize the environmental, economic and industrial development benefits associated with wind energy for Canada.
