Yes, but under proper protection with nationalize industry, while investing in cleaner alternatives.

 @996M5VFGreenfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes. The reason being, is that nuclear energy is actually one of the cleanest energy sources on earth. It's just people are afraid to use it due to the Chernobyl incident, when in reality, that was an accident, and not something that would happen when nuclear energy is used.

 @B25S8F5answered…6 days6D

Nuclear energy is good because it makes a lot of power with little fuel and doesn’t pollute the air, but it’s also dangerous because of accidents and radioactive waste, so it needs to be used carefully.

 @B23B8DTPeople’sfrom Saskatchewan  answered…2wks2W

yes nuclear energy is our future need we need to put more money into it and our nuclear weapons' program

 @9ZZ37MKConservativefrom Alberta  answered…3wks3W

Yes, this is a massive power source but we need to research this more and understand it and figure out ways to use this in a safe way

 @9ZKRZJDConservativefrom Ontario  answered…1mo1MO

As long as funding is given to research how to implement it safely and properly dispose of nuclear waste.

 @9ZJ52HDNew Democraticfrom Ontario  answered…1mo1MO

I support nuclear energy use, but only if it doesn't become the main energy source and is temporary while we find better alternatives. Also when using nuclear energy if should majorly affect citizens

 @9YXKBJFfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

One of the best sources of energy if waste is dealt with properly. So spend the extra money to deal with it long term

 @9YCMSKNfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

yes for it can be very beneficial. its a waste not to use nuclear energy it can power and do so many things that can help us as humanity. but I think we should be weary of communist nations such as Russia and china to make sure they don't use it against us.

 @9XCFZ4Zfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

If there are plans for nuclear energy, it should be nationalized. However, we should invest in cleaner alternatives first (ex: hydro electric where possible, wind in the Prairies)

 @9X56Y5Bfrom Ontario  answered…2mos2MO

no, because nuclear energy,bombs,technologies not only can harm humans,animals etc. but also they can harm the environment, and it might be dangerous to the people that are close to those technologies cause this technologies might overheat/explode.

 @9WSJYRYfrom Alberta  answered…2mos2MO

yes, as as long as the power plants are placed away from major populations and proper safety protocols to protect citizens are put in place.

 @9ZKX2DJfrom Ontario  answered…1mo1MO

It is true that nuclear energy would drastically decrease CO2 emssions, unfortunately, we live in a high volatility world. There are a lot of wars happening right now therefore, nuclear development is not a godd idea for human civilization right now

 @9V9R5P2Conservativefrom Quebec  answered…3mos3MO

I don’t support it because it could be fatal at any point and time, like what happened in Chernobyl. It’s dangerous because we are having more and more weather problems.

 @9TXRJM5Liberalfrom Ontario  answered…3mos3MO

Yes. as long as the chances of failures happening are slim to none, and any damage the failures cause is minimal

 @9TV5VL5from Alberta  answered…3mos3MO

yes, but with the Federal government oversight on the projects with specialized safety measures in place for the workers and general public

 @9T42CXPfrom British Columbia  answered…4mos4MO

Yes and no, more cleaner alternatives should be more invested in and also the nuclear energy should be in a controlled environment and checked for any spills/harmful things happening to the facility where the energy is stored

 @9SHLP2Bfrom Prince Edward Island  answered…4mos4MO

Yes, but we should look into other clean energy alternatives as well like wind, solar, hydroelectric, thorium and geothermal

 @9P8NRFMNew Democratic from Alberta  answered…6mos6MO

Yes, nuclear energy an efficient, clean, and safe source of fuel. Theoretical events of damage, collapse, epidemic, etc. only occur when nuclear energy is not appropriately handled by or in a safe and educated manner by qualified individuals/officals.

 @9MJ9RZFfrom British Columbia  answered…7mos7MO

no because nuclear energy ahrms the enviroment and it also reproduce radioactive waves they are deadly if any human coems in contact of those rays because they can destroy a human body and otehr cells on a cellur level.

 @9MGCZ6Dfrom Manitoba  answered…7mos7MO

The use of nuclear energy can benefit us, if used in a controlled and mild way with highly trained professionals on site.

 @9M4Y94Nfrom Ontario  answered…8mos8MO

I do believe it should be banned but it's one of the best sources of energy we have so we cant ban It yet

 @9LJGNWTPeople’s from British Columbia  answered…9mos9MO

Yes, without public subsidy but there should be no public subsidy into ANY industry. Let market forces drive research and innovation. There is much to be done with low yield, low half life reactors. It is possible to have a unit the size of a semi-trailer that powers an entire town. Safe operation should also address safe disposal of spent fuels until fusion energy becomes the preferred choice.

 @9KSKML3from Ontario  answered…10mos10MO

Yes if surrounding communities are well compensated, given the option to relocate, or Nuclear sites are built in desolate areas

 @9KG9KSMfrom Montana  answered…10mos10MO

Nuclear energy is safe and reliable. It's a great energy source but we should consider cleaner alternatives.

 @9KFBDW3Conservativefrom Ontario  answered…10mos10MO

Yes, only if it is abundantly safe to do so in the face of war, terrorist attacks, and long term for the environment.

 @9K5QBS9 from British Columbia  answered…10mos10MO

YES! ABSOLUTELY! we need nuclear power more than ever, especially in BC, Canada where energy costs will continue to rise.

 @9K4JB7Nfrom British Columbia  answered…10mos10MO

Yes, For nuclear fusion not fission. More funing in Nuclear Fusion as it is a good source of clean energy

 @9JZ4BJ3from Texas  answered…10mos10MO

The support for the use of nuclear energy varies. Some argue that it's a low-carbon energy source that can help address climate change, while others express concerns about safety, nuclear waste, and the potential for accidents. It's a complex issue that involves weighing the benefits and risks associated with nuclear energy.

 @9JXP9PRfrom British Columbia  answered…10mos10MO

No, but we need to investigate it, and learn more about nuclear energy, until we can use it as public usage. And keep only authorized people in the area. We don't want to repeat the mistakes of 1986 in Chernobyl

 @9JWZHWWfrom Saskatchewan  answered…11mos11MO

Yes, and nationalize the industry but Indigenous communities should have final say on where nuclear energy plants are built

 @9HXHTR4from Ontario  answered…12mos12MO

There should be an extensive research into the pros and cons for humain’ health and the environment with nuclear energy

 @9HPKD6Vfrom Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

yes i support its use as long as it isint near a city or a place where thousands of people could get injured should a catastropic event occur at the nuclear power plant

 @9GR7T57Liberalfrom Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

Well, if we can find sustainable cleaner alternatives that can last for a long time and produce enough for the public, i say we ban the nuclear energy, but currently it is goind to be hard to do so for now yes until we find other solutions.

 @9GNXXXTfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

Yes. It's an essential form of non-GHG emitting energy, and can be an essential part of the low carbon economy for not just Canada but for other nations as well.

 @9GNM9GSfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

Yes but there needs to be more effort in how we can safely and cleanly deal with the nuclear waste without further harming Earth

 @9GH2KFFfrom Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

Yes, as long as the people who work at nuclear power plants are extremely well educated, can pass a monthly exam to ensure they are fit to work at the plant, and they are white.

 @9GH25VHfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

honestly it depends for what, if something gose wrong with it you can take out a whole city/all the people working with it and most of them are likly to die

 @9GB97RBfrom Manitoba  answered…1yr1Y

No electric vehicles cause more damage to the earth when making the batteries than gasoline and diesel

 @9FXW43Nfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

No for nuclear fission, yes for nuclear fusion research while also investing in cleaner alternatives

  @Daboss2o1Conservative from Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

Yes, and nationalize the industry

Other than fossil fuels we do not have another way to make electricity efficient enough other than nuclear. Wind and solar depend on the weather, geothermal isn't developed enough, and hydro doesn't work everywhere and takes up lots of land. nuclear can fill the niche of fossil fuels whilst all the others fall short.

 @9FPG8CXfrom Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

Yes! Absolutely! But with a combination of both Public and Private cooperation.

 @9FMP7H2from Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

yes and no because it can be useful but bad stuff could happen when being used ]

 @9FLQZJLConservativefrom Saskatchewan  answered…1yr1Y

nuclear energy plants are not a good idea because something can go really wrong

 @9FCF3WBfrom Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

Its one of our main power sources, but its very unsafe for the environment.

 @9FC75HLfrom Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

Only if a value added to the country, resources or if it's beneficial and if it's harmful then no.

 @9FBCX3Bfrom Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

 @9F9ZQ2BGreenfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

 @9F9THK3from Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

Yes, are long as they keep the C02 emission low and are low on greenhouse effects.

 @9F889LLfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

 @9F84JWNfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

 @9F7JWQSfrom Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

 @9F4F77YConservativefrom Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

100% yes. Nuclear energy, when handled correctly, is a much cleaner energy than people think. Most of the radioactive material is used up entirely when producing electricity. The only products made from it is a small gram of radioactive material and distilled water.

 @9F3YN58from Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

Nuclear energy has a lot of potential but untill we are able to mitigate and prevent any devestating problems and avoid another chernobyl, it’s just too big a risk

 @9F2T5CZConservativefrom Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

 @9DG796Ffrom Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

Nuclear energy is the most efficient and cleanest of energy, except for they should be using thorium as opposed to uranium, and the reactor plants are to be set up in nine earthquake zones and nowhere close to a coastline

 @9DDB3M2from Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

I support nuclear energy, as long the waste is properly disposed of. But I think we as a species should invest in cleaner engery.

 @9DCWDPPfrom Seoul-t'ukpyolsi  answered…1yr1Y

 @8TVD7ZTfrom Ontario  answered…3yrs3Y

No. We could power the entire world with renewable energy tomorrow if we wanted too. If we focused less on the money and more on the sustainability of life on earth.

 @9TMMVLNNew Democraticfrom Alberta  answered…3mos3MO

yes, as long as there is people that work in the nuclear plant field that are well-educated and able tol identify problems with an well-preventative approach in a quick manner to reduce accidents.

 @9T7XY37from Alberta  answered…4mos4MO

Yes, so long as there's a way to safely dispose of nuclear waste, (spent nuclear fuel, and waste water (D2O)), if so, and there isn't a threat of another Chernobyl, I'm behind the idea.

 @9SVZQJFfrom Alberta  answered…4mos4MO

It depends on whether a better, cleaner option is viable or not. If there isn't yes, but if there is, I would be critical of the provincial government not choosing to invest in said other options.

 @9FWMZSCfrom British Columbia  answered…1yr1Y

Only as a last resort while we search for cleaner alternatives and conducted away from public spaces with increased safety regulations to avoid another Chernobyl.

 @9FL3H4Hfrom Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

 @9FJGM4Yfrom Alberta  answered…1yr1Y

 @8QW7HWCfrom British Columbia  answered…4yrs4Y

Yes because if done right it is a form of clean energy that can have no effects

 @9CTXKP5from Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

As long as it is used in a safe way and not too harmful to the environment

 @9CLJFYRfrom Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

Yes, but only if the waste is disposed of safely. I also think more work should be done to find a way to reuse nuclear waste, or at least make it less dangerous. Nuclear energy is an OK alternative to fossil fuels, but it would make sense in the long run to transition over to other sources such as hydro, and wind power.

 @9CLFRH3from Ontario  answered…1yr1Y

 @9CDN55Vfrom British Columbia  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, as long as it has been proven to be absolutely safe and has no chance whatsoever of malfunctioning

 @9BX7ZFXfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

 @9BWGCTWfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

I believe that we should be using the safer Blue version of nuclear energy in that kind of place

 @9BVGQPZfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

No. Nuclear energy is not developed enough to be lucrative to the country yet...

 @9BTK9THConservativefrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, but there should be regular machine maintenance, corporate regulation, etc.

 @9BKSCBLConservativefrom Quebec  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes as long as the workers that work in the nuclear industry are strictly trained.

 @9B274DYfrom Saskatchewan  answered…2yrs2Y

no and yes for military purposes but what if they use it for like threatening other countries

 @99WWSNTLiberalfrom Saskatchewan  answered…2yrs2Y

 @93YP3RKfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

 @93TR4SMfrom Ontario  answered…2yrs2Y

Yes, and especially the use of thorium reactors. thorium is 200x more efficient than uranium, can't be turned into weapons, and more common than uranium, FAR better than any other option right now.
