We need to seriously look at the long-term benefits of creating a sustainable, renewable energy system in Ontario and across Canada. There is an urgent need to stop the increase of green house gases but an equally we need to look at long term energy solutions. Nuclear carries inherent risk that renewables do not. No matter how safe we deem it now, there is no one who can truly guarantee its safety in operation or the storage of nuclear bi-products 20, 50 or 100 yrs from now. With renewables there is no such risk of contamination. It also allows for a more localized approach to power that would avert such disasters like large scale grid failures and power outages caused by increasingly unpredictable weather events. Please consider the best solution, not a half-measure. respectfully,

Simon Pauls
