Horizon lawsuit back on track

The 126 million dollar Horizon Wind lawsuit against the city can now proceed unhindered.   The Ontario Superior Court of Justice has rejected the City of Thunder Bay's attempt to put Horizon’s legal action on hold in favour of an arbitration.   As a result of its failed effort, The City of Thunder Bay has been ordered to pay 15-thousand dollars in legal costs to Horizon. Horizon's suit came after city council voted to move 4 of the company's planned wind turbines for the Nor'wester Escarpment.
