Will Susan Holt’s new government continue New Brunswick’s nuclear fantasies? Commentary by Susan O'Donnell nbmediacoop.org/2024/11/02/wil…

#Alberta and #Saskatchewan's funding of #smallmodularreactors is an obstructionist tactic to slow down the transition away from #fossilfuels, write Quinn Goranson and M.V. Ramana @ubcSPPGA #nuclear#abpoli #skpoli #cdnpoli #CleanEnergy nationalobserver.com/2024/08/19/opi…

$9.8 B deficit due in part to $7.3 B subsidies to #electricity users for high cost #nuclear and gas. Wouldn’t you rather fund #health care? #onpoli #fordnation #triplewindandsolar @spaikin tvo.org/article/why-sh…

Myth buster: #nuclear energy is a dangerous distraction. 🚫 Nuclear is NOT: 💰 Affordable 🌍 Climate Solution 🌞 Renewable Partner 📉 Decarbonization Aid 🌱 Sustainable Future 💡 Genuine Solution 💣 Safe Energy Choice 👉caneurope.org/myth-buster-nu… #ClimateActionNow #TogetherFor100RE

Ballooning costs and secret projects at Canada’s federal nuclear labs: What does #Canada get from its #nuclear power corporation for its $1.54 B budget? #Parliament should scrutinize the $1.5 B annual outlay to #AECL #cdnpoli rabble.ca/columnists/bal…

Rooftop #Solar could meet 100% of #electricity needs in Canadian homes, at a fraction of the cost and enviro footprint of fossil fuels or nuclear. #cdnpoli #gorenewable #onpoli @theenergymix theenergymix.com/rooftop-solar-…

Alberta has put a moratorium in wind and solar?! And will require mandatory end of lied bonds?!! Is this a joke? There 97,000 inactive oil wells not properly closed and 71,000 abandoned wells requiring clean-up. How about bonds for oil and gas?!!! #cdnpoli theglobeandmail.com/business/indus…

Painting nuclear power as the solution isn’t cool or hip or new or in any way alternative. It is toxic lipstick on a dead pig. nuclear Bacchanalia beyondnuclearinternational.org/2023/05/07/a-n… via @BeyondNukesInt

While Sweden's switch to #HeatPumps reduced their emissions from the building sector 95%, in #Canada heat pumps supplied only 6% of residential heating in 2021. Sweden's ace was a carbon tax that raised the price of heating oil. theenergymix.com/2023/05/07/95-…

Germany replaced one of its shut nuclear plants with solar+wind in just 3 months, adding 2.65 GW PV, 0.65 GW wind from Jan-Mar 2023 It added 944 MW PV, 365 MW wind in March alone renewablesnow.com/news/germany-a… @RenewablesNow @CKemfert @HJFell @ProfStrachan @BrianVad @ChristianOnRE

Can we please have a moment of silence for the 37th anniversary of the #Chernobyl disaster? And that includes the noise from all you #nuclear bros out there. Thanks.

Nuclear “has no part in fighting the #ClimateEmergency.” @ElizabethMay joined other MPs to voice concern about feds' funding #nuclear. #cdnpoli #onpoli nationalobserver.com/2023/04/26/new…

TY @ElizabethMay @mariosimardbq @alexboulerice and @JenicaAtwin for speaking out on risks of 🇨🇦 plans to expand #nuclear energy coast to coast with new, untried reactors. Groups call SMRs a 'dirty, dangerous distraction' from #climateaction. #cdnpoli @susanodo_NB @NoNukeBailouts

"Small module (#nuclear) reactors don’t exist. They haven’t been built yet... they are such a bad investment that private sector money isn’t rolling into them. They’re going to need billions of dollars in public funds.” #canpoli #Onpoli ottawa.citynews.ca/2023/04/25/can…
