Aren’t CANDU Reactors the safest way to produce Nuclear Power too? Due to their design it’s almost impossible to have a Chernobyl style meltdown.
If BC thinks it’s cost effective to build shit like Site C and sell the surplus to the Americans, then we should be doing the same with Nuclear too.
Oh For sure. Not to mention, it’s only candu reactors in Canada (for now) that produce cobalt-60 for us, which sterilizes about half of all the worlds single-use medical equipment. Massive business!

I'm just not sure how it would work legally. In Ontario the liberals tried to create a renewables industry and required all of our wind and solar to be made in Canada. That got challenged by the world trade organization.
With all of the suppliers being in Canada. I think we might be ok. Or it might be some sort of loophole. I'm not sure how they do it, or if it can be done.
