Canada’s biggest booster of solar power doesn’t mince words when he describes the stakes for his industry in Ontario’s June 12 election.
“The proposed plans of Tim Hudak and the Conservatives would be a devastating setback for the Ontario solar sector,” said John Gorman of the Canadian Solar Industries Association, or CanSIA, in an interview.
“The industry that has been created here would disappear literally overnight.”
