I want Ontario to phase out nuclear energy quickly and safely while not burdening taxpayers with bearing the burden of this toxic energy waste that has no safe disposal options. The push to store waste so near Lake Huron demonstrates the short sightedness of this form of corporate governance. Furthermore, Ontarians are still paying for the cost overruns and poor performance of this ultra expensive energy source.
Good thing we have better options ahead with the realistic possibility of sustainable energy. We need to move swiftly and wisely towards this solution.
While Liberal governments had good intentions, they screwed our energy transition through corruption scandals and now selling public sector energy to private enterprise so that Ontarians pay even more for their energy.
Ontarians need full, online access to information without charge nor run-around. Until we have this foundation, democracy will elude us and corporate governance will continue. Until benchmarks that are publicly transparent and accountable can be used to create a sustainable energy policy, it is clear that our provincial governance will fail to meet the minimum standard of public democracy. If we cannot know accurate info regarding energy use and energy efficiencies enabled through a sustainable energy policy, political discourse is undermined from the start.
