We have confidence that Atomic Energy of Canada Limited is maintaining the strictest standards with respect to CANDU reactors.
The Middle Powers Initiative does not take a position on the efficacy of nuclear power. Rather, we recognize that the non-proliferation treaty guarantees access to nuclear power by states. We thus feel that the International Atomic Energy Agency and its inspection facilities need to be strengthened and more strongly supported financially than is now the case.
But with respect to CANDU reactors, we do not have a position on that.
