We're thinking especially of the small operators, that is to say those who only own one reactor. New Brunswick and Quebec are in that situation. The operators, which are Crown corporations operating under the protection of the province, can use the financial security offered by it. Clause 25 is somewhat confusing as a result of a potential limitation on the range of activities or tools that can be used by a Crown corporation such as Hydro-Quebec or New Brunswick Power.
Perhaps the same is true of the two large corporations, including Ontario Power Generation. It's also a Crown corporation. Whatever the case may be, this undermines the flexibility of power companies. We would like to see the broadest possible range of activities in the operations of the provincial government, which manages its power company at the financial level.
