Thank you for the question.
It's very important. One of the strong benefits of the Canadian nuclear industry and the reactors used at Darlington and Bruce is that CANDU reactors generate medical isotopes that are used for a number of different procedures for nuclear medicine—fighting cancers and other different procedures—to the point where it has gotten significant international attention, including from the IAEA, based in Vienna.
One of the benefits that come from the nuclear industry is the innovation across different sectors—advanced materials, medicine, etc. Therefore, many countries and provinces are looking at nuclear technology as a centrepiece of their innovation system.
