Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power station. About 15% of Canada's electricity comes from nuclear power, with 19 reactors mostly in Ontario providing 13.5 GWe of power capacity. Proponents argue that nuclear energy is now safe and emits much less carbon emissions than coal plants. Opponents argue that recent nuclear disasters in Japan prove that nuclear power is far from safe.

I think we should keep nuclear energy and spend more of our gdp on it in regards to canadas military fir their bombs. Canadas military ranks 23rd in the world for most powerful military and we only spend one percent of our gdp on the military even though we rank 10th largest economy. I want canada to be the best it can be and I believe that banning nuclear power except for our military would improve canada as a more stronge nation.
