Nuclear power helps Canada avoid 80 million tonnes of CO₂ emissions every year - that’s like taking 15 million cars off the road. Here in Ontario, OPG’s nuclear stations are proud to play a major role in that achievement, delivering reliable, low-carbon electricity to millions. With ongoing investments in refurbishments, advanced technologies like small modular reactors (SMRs), and the potential for new large-scale nuclear, OPG is committed to keeping Ontario’s air clean for generations to come - so we can all breathe a little easier.

Aside from powering roughly 11% of Ontario’s electricity needs, Ontario Power Generation’s Pickering (@opg) Nuclear Generating Station is continuing to play a critical role in safeguarding the health of millions of people around the world. In late 2025, the station and its team achieved a record harvest of life-saving Cobalt-60 (Co-60) isotopes, which are used to sterilize 30% of the world’s single-use medical devices, such as gloves, implants, and syringes, preventing countless infections. opg.com/story/pickerin…

@RegionofDurham has waived fees for dropping off Blue Box materials at Regional Waste Management Facilities. The fee waiver was approved as part of the 2026 budget and is now in effect. This change helps support businesses during Ontario’s transition to a producer-run Blue Box system. ♻️ Durham businesses previously receiving municipal Blue Box collection services can now bring their Blue Box recyclables to any Regional Waste Management Facility (WMF) at no cost. This applies to dedicated loads of recyclable materials only, not mixed loads also containing chargeable materials. A list of facility locations is available at durham.ca/WMF. While this is a provincial decision, the Region continues to advocate for small businesses to be included in future provincial updates to the program. For more information, visit: lnkd.in/ghF7R7Nz
