Erik Cloverdale is the newest neighbour of our Rotarian Dolf Wynia, residing in Walsingham, and his guest at lunch today.
Erik is the GPO (Green Party of Ontario) candidate running for MPP of Haldimand and Norfolk in this week's provincial election.
A person of diverse interests, he is an engineer by trade working in the arena of solar panel and electrical distribution, a director of a company in the Puslinch area - interests include a motorcycle, being an air plane pilot and boating on Long Point Bay.
Erik's platform is understanding the necessity for sustainable energy. Energy sustainability is not an overnight solution. However, the lifetime "unit of power" cost of solar energy is now reaching or at par with traditional nuclear, coal, gas and hydro.
