I support a 100% renewable energy plan for Ontario.  As energy conservation increases in Ontario we're actually not using as much energy as we used to. I'm aghast that while reducing dirty coal fired energy, we've actually replaced it with worse - nuclear energy.  The nuclear reactors may be "safe" for now, but the waste cannot be stored safely forever. We're deferring the danger to our children or children's children.  Should there ever be an unpredictable natural disaster in Pickering, millions of people's lives would be at risk.

Please consider buying more clean energy from Quebec.  There should be no reason for us to be ramping up our nuclear power just to sell it at a loss to the US. Let's slowly deactivate our nuclear generators and ramp up water electricity from Quebec and continue our energy conservation.
