A critical milestone is on the horizon for Canada’s 175-year-long plan to bury its nuclear waste underground, with two pairs of Ontario communities set to decide if they would be willing hosts.

    You’ve built me into quite the straw man. I’ve read every bit of information provided to my community by the NWMO. I’m judging this article against that information.

    I have plenty of experience with the employees of the nuclear power generation industry. The phrase they’ve coined for working there is playing “Hide and seek for a grand a week, or stand in plain view for 2” Watching the money get thrown around to buy votes is gross. I’m not against nuclear energy at all, but if we were serious about generating energy from nuclear power we wouldn’t be endlessly rebuilding our grandparents reactors.

    The bunny thing is a targeted ad I’ve been seeing online for years. They have treated us like children and try to polish the turd buy underplaying what they actually want to do. Now as the vote draws nearer they’re pulling back the curtain more. They learned their lesson when Godrich said no to putting in the salt mine after they spoke plainly.

    My opinion is there’s huge money behind this decision and it doesn’t really matter what I think.
