Thank you very much.
Mr. Elston, you talked about the safety of the CANDU reactor. You say there have not been any accidents, but this bill opens the door to nuclear generators from other countries. Moreover, we think that is its aim. You referred to an excellent safety record in the past 40 years, but that only concerns the CANDU reactor. In the past 40 years, the nuclear energy industry has come up with no solution to the problem of nuclear waste, particularly plutonium-239, which is a real time bomb. Not only is it used to make bombs, but it is the substance that takes the longest time to decay.
Don't you think that the bill completely misses Canada's real safety issue, that is to say managing waste rather than continuing to produce it, supported by insurance?
