How about increase the wind farms a do solar right?

And forget the methods that are toxic for thousands of years.

I love renewables, but a nuclear backbone with renewables on top will allow us to secure being carbon neutral a lot more easily

The aversion to nuclear is a problem. I don't think people know 60% of Ontario's power is nuclear.

Even with storage, renewables are cheaper than new nuclear. The economics haven't made any sense for years now yet these clowns persist with their proposals to make everyone pay more.

Plus, we can put up solar panels faster; we have the land. We don't (just) need more clean power in 2040, we need clean power now.
