Windmill gets Algonquins of Ontario’s support for Zibi project – Ottawa Business Journal
August 21, 2015
On the heels of more opposition from four Algonquin First Nations in Quebec, Windmill Development Group now has the Algonquins of Ontario (AOO) on its side as it prepares for its $1.2-billion Zibi project at Chaudiere Falls.
Windmill signed a Letter of Intent Thursday with the AOO, creating a partnership to preserve and promote Algonquin culture in the residential, commercial and retail development on Chaudiere and Albert islands.
“Windmill is honoured to be working in partnership with the Algonquin people to ensure their longstanding presence and history in the area of Zibi is both duly honoured and preserved,” Windmill founding partner Jeff Westeinde said in a statement.
