I’m not sure if we’re allowed to ask questions on this sub. It seems mostly news articles but I figured I’d give it a go.
So Bruce Power in Ontario is planning to build the world’s biggest nuclear plant in the world (by expanding on an existing plant).

BC is more well known for hydroelectric, but that particular source hasn’t really been greatly expanded on in decades and site-C is pretty controversial.
This got be thinking:
How do we in BC feel about nuclear power? Would you support one near where you live? Why or why not, and what other power options would you prefer?
You have to understand that nuclear plant is quite old and not built with current specs in mind. Post-Fukushima improvements were mostly about dealing with external damage. They beefed up reactors against natural disasters, and the Americans took the chance to also ask for more protections against deliberate actions - modern reactors are designed to withstand a direct artillery strike without causing a meltdown or accident.
