Toronto’s electricity future is at stake.

Doug Ford is planning to meet Toronto’s electricity needs by building four new first-of-their-kind U.S. (GE-Hitachi) nuclear reactors near Oshawa and a new transmission line to bring this power to downtown Toronto.

This plan will:

– raise our electricity bills by favouring the highest cost and riskiest approach to meeting our growing electricity needs, and

– jeopardize our national security by making us dependent on U.S. technology and enriched uranium imports – that can be shut down at a moment’s notice by President Trump.

The provincial NDP and Liberal Party need to be clear about whether they support the Ford government’s risky plan to build new U.S. nuclear reactors, or whether they will support an affordable, reliable, renewable electricity system to meet Toronto’s needs.

It’s time for Toronto’s NDP and Liberal MPPs to tell us where they stand >>
