People say they want to hear from the youth and that the decisions they make are for the youth. So listen to what we're saying! Keep this out of our territory!!
I've been to the Brock Nuclear Plant and was horrified at how many containers of nuclear waste was held in the warehouse. I was honestly shocked and was afraid... it felt wrong to see how much waste there was, and to think to transport all that waste through my own traditional territory is scary.
It feels wrong to have so much waste being put into the ground... thinking of transportation the issues that come with that, consider the underground water maps, consider how preparing the site would affect the biodiversity, etc.
Keep this out of Northwest Ontario!!! I understand how beneficial the nuclear power plant is, for Northwest Ontario in specific. I also feel that the big cities in Eastern Ontario must use more electricity per capita. So why put it here, when most of the power is used to keep the big cities going?!
I'm also worried that further developments for this project will ruin traditional harvesting/fishing territory! There's a lot of things I don't like about this!!!
