Bad weather | Columnists | Joe Castaldo | Canadian Business Online

Bad weather Columnists Joe Castaldo Canadian Business Online: "Sometimes it’s difficult not to find symbolism in the weather. The Canadian Solar Industries Association happened to kick off its annual conference yesterday in Toronto on what was a cold, dreary and snowy morning. The sun was nowhere to be seen.
Inside the conference centre, attendees tried to be more upbeat. Companies showcased their wares and politicians trumpeted commitments to solar power and renewable energy as a whole. But the stormy days ahead for the solar industry were as hard to ignore as the lousy weather outside. Sometimes it’s difficult not to find symbolism in the weather.
