I believe that the plan for Ontario (and all of Canada) should be to use 100% renewable energy resources.
The devastating effects of coal, oil and nuclear ways of providing energy need to be stopped. The air pollution caused by coal, the water and ground pollution (and resulting animal and human deaths) caused by oil spills, and the life taking and/or maiming results of nuclear disasters need to end.
From what I have read, in the long - term switching to renewable resources will be cost effective - in other words CHEAPER. And who doesn't want that !
Please keep the deadline for closing the Pickering nuclear station before 2020 - especially since the output is said to be surplus and exported to Michigan at a loss.
Think of your children's future when you make a decision. What if they were caught up in a nuclear disaster or had to drink water from a source that was polluted by oil ?
I'd like to trust that you will make a fully informed decision that allows you to look your children and/or grandchildren in the eye (and yourself in the mirror) and feel at peace about it.
