Its crazy to me the amount of people with misinformation about this. Nuclear is safer than any other form of energy. Countries keep hindering nuclear while they continue to burn coal which releases more uncontroled radiation than a nuclear plant and creates 300 times more ash in the atmosphere by weight annually. than nuclear plants will create nuclear material in there lifetimes
@Axios96 Says:
I think the most trigger and incorrect information in this video is calling Ontario and Quebec states.
In response I will now be calling Queensland a province.

Radiation is not a joke it is a death risk
@Trampus10-4 Says:
So we sell it but won’t implement it! Don’t fool yourself nuclear energy in Canada is sparse. Quebec is subsidized by Alberta to keep their prices down all around while making life more expensive in Alberta.
@andrewmason9137 Says:
Ontario's power is not subsidized by the government. In fact Ontario Power Generation gives money back to the Ontario government quarterly from its PROFITS of selling energy at the IESO agreed rate and providing most of the worlds medical isotopes.

Canada wants to offload her obsolete nuclear technology on Australia.
@philipclift7205 Says:
The owners of these nuclear power plants must live with the radioactive waste in their front yards .
@rollingthunderinho Says:
Ontarios electricity is subsidized a little bit but that 14c kWh figure seemed high anyway. Likely that is the figure before subsidizing. It’s quite remarkable that between hydropower and nuclear they’re able to power the lives of 15 million people basically emission free. Quebec deserves props for their dirt cheap 100% hydropower grid too
@cheesesyrkyer5290 Says:
The 6 billion goes towards a government research lab and always has. The research is completely separate from power generation. None of subsidy goes towards the production of power. Most governments around the world have money in nuclear research including funding universities
@dennisenright9347 Says:
Challk River is NOT one of Ontarios' nuclear energy generating stations. It belongs to the federal government and is a research facility, with a side business of being one of the world's largest producers of medical isotopes. The province of Ontario has a total of 16 reactors at 3 sites. Pickering is about 30km east of Toronto and has 4 reactors. Darlington has 4 and is about 60 km east of Toronto. Bruce has 8, on a site 100 km northwest of Toronto.
Last year in October, after decades of wasting time, Ontario made a renewed commitment to nuclear, making the decision to add 4 more reactors at Bruce and 4 SMRs at Darlington, as well as reversing a decision to close Pickering and committing to refurbishing it.
@yomamasapeach Says:
Ontario has to subsidize the electricity sector with $6 billion in rebates because the PREVIOUS government signed 33,000 "Green Energy" contracts. All of these contracts had Feed-in Tariff and Power Purchase Agreement structures which awarded renewable suppliers massive Above-rate contracts for electricity, which have effectively cost taxpayers billions. It wasn't Nuclear energies fault at all, in fact it was Atomic Energy that allowed for the switch off of coal power plants in the first place. If it wasn't for Nuclear energy, Ontario would have been far worse off since there would be both electricity shortages while simultaneously having massive bills. The new plan is to slowly expand renewables while building more nuclear and hydro for baseload power.

It also follows a series of contaminations scares at the Lucas Heights facility in recent years — including one just two months ago in which three workers were exposed a chemical spill.
In August 2017 a worker was left with blisters on his hands and a higher risk of developing cancer after he dropped a vial of radioactive material and was contaminated through two pairs of gloves.
And we're still dithering about what to do with the intermediate level waste produced by the OPAL research reactor at Lucas Heights in Sydney. At present, spent fuel is sent to France for reprocessing while nuclear waste is now being returned to Australia, where it is held in a temporary store near the reactor.

Bowen and lies go hand in hand. He is incapable of honesty, integrity and accountability, all the traits of a good Labor minister.
@stickynorth Says:
CANDU Power is the safest and best way to massively green the grid with baseload power other than renewables and storage which are good too. Both should be embraced with open arms. It's fossil fuels that should be shunned ASAP including but especially coal. That is more lethal than any nuclear accident ever could be excluding bombs...
@desking8065 Says:
Your choice of nuke sites do no comply with nuke energy regulators. A 20 km buffer zone around the site with no more than 200 persons living within zone A 50 km Emergency zone in case of mishap.
Towns around coal fired power stations are with in the 20km buffer zon

And where are the private investors for your nuclear plan, Peter? Seems they don't think it's a good idea either.
So your plan is for the taxpayer to 100% fund your nuclear plants, which sounds like a very socialist plan to me.
Are you now a socialist Peter Dutton?

It does not matter who wins the election. Most people will be voting with their stomachs, not their brains. So, we'll keep ping-ponging between two rotten major parties that have lost the plot for our once-great nation. We should have had a party all along that put Australians first, which meant that we should be already building new coal-fired power stations, just like so many other countries that are collectively building hundreds of them. The net zero emissions agenda is a hoax and a scam. Yet both major parties have chosen the most expensive and longest path to provide reliable, affordable and available power. ALP have chosen renewables and soon will be forced to use large and horrendously expensive and environmentally hazardous grid-sized batteries, while the LNP have chosen a mixed nuclear and renewables path. How about we choose the best solution of all, namely coal and dispense with the net zero madness? We can use nuclear later once we can afford it, which may be never. Reality will bite everyone soon enough.
@albertopascual3335 Says:
Bowen is an im……. He is as incompetent as all the Labor Ministers led by their cheerleader Albo. They don’t want further debate nuclear energy because it will only further exposed their utter incompetence and lack of leadership when it comes to bringing down the cost of living of every Australian. It’s all well and good for them because they, just received their salary increases, for doing nothing. Bring on the general election.

Choosing large-scale nuclear power has been one of the biggest favours Ontario has ever done itself. It provides electricity at a good price (US$0.10 per kWh) with no air pollution. Ontario burns no coal, and natural gas is a mere 10% of the mix.

@stewartbrooker Says:
Turns out most of Canada is Hyrdo over 60%. Only 15% is Nuclear. The provinces that use more renewables have lower prices compared to Ontario.
Plus the Ontario Subsidy program to households is why rates appear so low compared to Australia.
Over the 20-year period from 2020-21 to 2039-40, the FAO estimates that the nine programs will cost the Province a total of $118.1 billion.
Is Dutton going to commit to the same sort of program?
