Dear Ministry,

The economics and environmental concerns of my generation (generation x) and my children's generation (millennials) are paramount. Our future depends and thrives on clean initiatives to ensure a that can support our population and contribute to our economy.

Nuclear energy contributes positively to the economy; Ontario’s nuclear generating stations at Bruce, Darlington and Pickering provide almost two thirds of the province’s power; and is responsible for providing my family with careers through two generations.

Nuclear energy offers a clean, low-carbon power source at a low cost to consumers. Nuclear power is one of the few energy sources that contribute very little to greenhouse-gas emissions. With Nuclear energy optimizing safety by means of refurbishment we ensure our children have a positive energy source at a lower cost than gas, solar or wind.

We have to consider that refurbishments and upgrades are a part of our utilities and services responsibility to upgrade and improve. So, what does refurbishment mean for my family? A safe and clean source of energy. That contributes to our economy and protects our environment.  A positive future for my friends and family.

We are passionate about our province and our community, thank you for taking the time to listen.

Sincerely,

JCB
