I believe that our future is renewables away from coal, oil, natural gas and nuclear and into solar, wind, biomass, geothermal etc...  Nuclear is a clean energy but it is very expensive to create and to maintain.  Also, it has the problem of nuclear waste and where to put it.  If the proposed site near Lake Huron is any indication, we must avoid any new development and begin to shut down our working reactors.  My final point is that there is always a threat of a natural disaster, which could cause damage to the reactors core and we would create insurmountable difficulties recovering from this event.  The only clean way to reduce our emissions to the appropriate levels of the Paris Agreement is the development of renewables at a very fast pace. Canadians have a right to clean air, clean water, clean food and clean soil.  Let us move in that direction before it is too late!
