A blue-ribbon group of American nuclear non-proliferation experts warns that Canada’s investment in new nuclear technology could lead to the spread of nuclear weapons and new threats to the environment.
“We write as U.S. non-proliferation experts and former government officials and advisors with related responsibilities to express our concern about your government’s financial support of Moltex — a startup company that proposes to reprocess CANDU spent fuel to recover its contained plutonium for use in molten-salt-cooled reactors.”
SMRs are one of the very few good ideas from the LPC though the practice of government picking economic winners and losers is a whole nother barrel of plutonium.
US experts are against it? When it comes to Canada’s energy development aren’t they always?
