Fast-Tracking Canada's Nukes

Critical of the burdensome Canadian environmental reviews required for nuclear plants, Progressive Conservative Leader John Tory vowed to fast track the building of new nukes.

"The people of the province need to know that when they get home at the end of a long day and turn on the lights that those lights will come on," he told reporters in Tiverton, the Bruce Power nuclear generating station on Lake Huron looming large behind him. "I think there's a way we can have absolute and complete consultation and review of these projects and get it done faster if the will is there."

Frankly, this is all just political rhetoric for now. The general Canadian mindset is liberal and won't likely change unless the lights go out.
