It might not interest everyone at first glance: writing about this new Canada Ontario Agreement. But it should. On all sides of the border, across the lakes and throughout the watershed. This agreement will set the tone for the next 5 years of water quality for 20% of the planet's surface fresh water and set the direction for the future health or demise of our most important natural asset. Water is at the heart of our health, economy, and overall prosperity. It is the foundat

Gordon Edwards June. Friends and Colleagues - Ontario Power Generation is Canada’s principal nuclear utility with 16 operational CANDU nuclear reactors— 8 of them on Lake Huron at the Brue Nuclear Complex, 4 of them at Pickering just east of Toronto, and 4 more at Darlington just east of Pickering. The latter ones are on the northern shore of Lake Ontario.At the Darlington site, construction is underway for the first of four so-called “SMNRs”—the BWRX-300, by GE-Hitachi. In

In my last post, I reflected on the bluffs of Lake Ontario along Port Granby—a place that has finally found peace after a century-long industrial legacy. That peace is a testament to what happens when we commit to getting things right, even if it takes time. However, that hard-won wisdom is facing a new kind of pressure. With the Ontario government’s push for ten new reactors and a broader continental trend toward fast-tracking infrastructure, we are at a crossroads. The conv

Canada’s Impact Assessment Agency is currently conducting an assessment of the Deep Geologic Repository (DGR) project proposed by the industry-owned Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO) for burying all of Canada’s high-level radioactive waste (irradiated nuclear fuel) at a distant location in Ontario, north of Lake Superior. A nearby town is Ignace, with a population of about 1200, and one of the nearby Indigenous communities is the Wabigoon Lake Ojibway Nation (WLON

He wanted to talk about Port Hope, the future of nuclear power and a question that feels increasingly urgent: Can Lake Ontario actually weather another 10 nuclear reactors?
