Sign to support Bruce C
To the Legislative Assembly of Ontario:
WHEREAS
- Ontario’s Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) projects that demand for electricity in the Province of Ontario will increase by 65% by 2050 and the province selected Bruce C in 2023 as the lead Project for large-scale nuclear expansion;
- Ontario will require substantial new sources of reliable, affordable, and clean electricity to support economic growth, electrification, population growth, and energy security;
- The Bruce Power site has safely generated electricity for Ontario families, businesses, and communities for decades and remains one of the largest sources of carbon-free electricity in the province;
- The Bruce C Project will be subject to rigorous, independent regulation through the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission and review through a Federal integrated Impact Assessment process, protecting the safety of the public, workers and the environment;
- The proposed Bruce C Project represents an opportunity to help meet Ontario’s future electricity needs while building on existing infrastructure, expertise, and a highly skilled workforce in the region;
- The Bruce C Project has the potential to create thousands of skilled trades, construction, professional, and operations jobs, as well as opportunities for local businesses, suppliers, municipalities, and Indigenous Nations and communities;
- Ontario’s future prosperity depends on long-term investments in critical infrastructure that support economic competitiveness, energy reliability, and opportunities for future generations;
We, the undersigned, petition the legislative assembly of Ontario to:
- Recognize the importance of securing sufficient reliable, affordable, and clean electricity supplies to meet Ontario’s growing energy needs;
- Acknowledge the potential economic, employment, and community benefits that the Bruce C Project could provide for Ontario and host communities across the region;
- Express support for the Bruce C Project as a fundamental project to secure energy security and economic opportunity for the Province of Ontario.
