Matthew Atkinson (left), a local farmer, initiated a question and answer period during the Fleury Winds wind turbine open house meeting at the Polonia Community Hall last week. Team members from Renewable Energy Systems joined him on stage, as well as another resident, and Manitoba Metis Federation senior economic advisor Lorne Pelletier (right). Atkinson said the group format would make questions accountable and he did not think an open house format with one-on-one questions was appropriate. (Connor McDowell/The Brandon Sun)
