Cutting corners in the name of profits when it comes to nuclear can have REALLY bad REALLY long lasting results. I think nuclear energy is fantastic, I think people are not reliable especially when corporations having high demands and hiding stuff. I don't think nuclear power plants should be leaking and apparently they don't either now finally that's why they're powering it down.

The issue here is more so that this leak happened more than once, and they themselves said it wasn't worth notification of the public.

An individual leak is not life ending, but as was shown by Indian point, these companies cannot be trusted to fucking do the right thing, and that is scary in the event a larger incident occurs.

Nuclear energy has a bad rap, and requires public trust. Fucking hiding your incidents isn't going to help that, nor is being a condescending twat about it.

Useless because if you can't determine the lesser of evils, you give equal support to the worst.
And no, 'fuck Trudeau' is an immature slogan adopted by right wing crazies. You shout that and you are a right wing crazy supporter.
I agree that policies are what should matter, but if you look at the 'right' parties in canada, they encompass such a variety of policies from the moderate financial conservatives to the nut job conspiracy crazies. That is the political entity that one would vote for or against, and so without a coherent policy, one can only refer to them as 'the right'.

But again, does this ever happen, or is it just naive dream that should've died in its infancy?

Like, I mean they've been here before. History says they will be here again. It just seems like they're following some dream of how things should go, but if their dream keeps bringing them to this, maybe find a new one?
