Merci Alexandre Boulerice et les trois autres députés courageux qui se sont joints à nous aujourd'hui. Les générations futures vous remercieront.

Excellent coverage of press conference today where 4 MPs voiced their concerns about federal plans to build up nuclear energy in Canada and build so-called "small modular reactors" in many communities.

TY Elizabeth May Mario Simard Alexandre Boulerice and Jenica Atwin for Fredericton for speaking out on risks of 🇨🇦 plans to expand #nuclear energy coast to coast with new, untried reactors. Groups call SMRs a 'dirty, dangerous distraction' from #climateaction. #cdnpoli Susan O'Donnell Angela Bischoff

One correction to your excellent story. CNL loves to say waste dump will hold contaminated clothing and rags. Actually, its MILLION tons will include 100+ radioactive buildings and soil from operating nuclear reactors and labs for 70 years nationalobserver.com/2024/01/09/new… Canada's National Observer

Algonquins of Barriere Lake do not consent to the radioactive waste dump the fed. govt is building upstream on the Ottawa River: "We will not rest until our rights are respected and the biodiversity of the Kichi Sibi lands and waters...are protected. #FPIC concernedcitizens.net/2024/01/13/pre…
