Bruce Power has abandoned its grand vision of building new reactors in Nanticoke and at its existing site near Kincardine, another sign that the nuclear "renaissance" is not emerging as planned.

He said the focus now will be to investigate how feasible it is to refurbish reactor units 3 and 4 at its Bruce A facility and units 5 to 8 at its Bruce B plant.

The Tiverton, Ont.-based company is in the process of restarting units 1 and 2, an effort that is hundreds of millions of dollars over budget and a year behind schedule. Those units are expected to go into service in 2010, adding an additional 1,500 megawatts to the grid.

4. Absolutely. We don't need another one.

And we need to shut those we already have.

Poison factories.

2. Dont worry -- Hillary has just sold India new nuclear power plants for many Billions ..

3. Nukes are great population control devices - who needs Auschwitz when you have nukes?

Nukes spew radiation into the environment which kill and mutate babies in utero (not to mention damage to moms). Infant mortality increases and the population gets reduced.

It is eugenicists perfect solution. China and India will enrich corporofascists while keeping their populations reduced.

Death camps?

no

Death communities.

for info on research about infant mortality go to

and

www.nirs.org

Look for journal links and articles.

The research and scientific data is impeccable and extremely horrifying.
