Acceptance of nuclear power

[A.PRIMES254]

turned 180 from a few years ago.more and more countries (Canada included)embrace the nuclear power source.France contemplating to build 14 new nuclear power plants

and the list goes on

A power source not dependant on weather.

Make it so #1. I'd rather live 1km from a nuclear plant than 1km from turbines and fields of solar panels.

I would rather live 1 km from a hydro electric dam.

what can go wrong https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fukushima ... r_disaster

Fukushima was a freak accident caused by an earthquake. Canada does not have such earthquakes.

Canada can provide a safe and feasible location to support nuclear power plants.

Fukushima was a freak accident caused by an earthquake, followed by a Tsunami, followed by a flood inside the reactor with the diesel backup generator situated below sea level. It is safe. No one died as a direct result of radiation.

impo nuclear power is the next logical direction for both BC Hydro & Fortis to go in, since there probably isn’t any more rivers in BC to dam.

BC alone has 5 major fault lines and could have an earthquake at any time.

It's just a matter of time until the "Big' one!

That's true and that makes BC a poor choice for a location but, there is the rest of canada that is in desperate need of cheap electric power.

Let them eat cake!

Weellll, they are burning coal to bake that cake.

By the time new fission plants are built in 5-10 years, the tech for sustained fusion might be doable.

France is funding 6, plus plans for 8 more nuclear plants. France is telling Europe to throw weight behind nuclear. France has the cleanest and cheapest electricity.

I thought Norway , 95% hydro, was the cheapest and France not far behind them.
Most expensive Denmark...windy power.
