Dear Minister of Energy, I…

Dear Minister of Energy,

I would just like to add my voice to the many who continue to support the role of nuclear power, and especially the Bruce Power role, in Ontario's energy needs as the LTEP is being considered.

Bruce Power currently delivers 30% of the electricity in Ontario at 30% of the average cost. This is a good news story for consumers and the government.

Nuclear power is safe and an economical baseload power source for the long term. I would not live here with my family if I did not have faith in the people and design of our CANDU reactors. Nuclear power provides employment for support industries located here in Ontario as well as the skilled professionals on site that are operating the plant. Nuclear power is also a welcome neighbour here in Bruce County as Bruce Power supports the surrounding communities with numerous charitable donations and as a partner in community building.

Please continue to give us the opportunity to demonstrate how we here at Bruce Power can continue to play this role and even improve on it right through to 2064.

Sincerely,

Peter Alpajaro, P.Eng.
