You don't know what you're talking about here Zip. Peace River is a beautiful place, and the residents have always been environmentally active.

Who in their right mind proposes a Nuclear Reactor in such a location? You'd have a better chance getting one built in downtown Calgary.

It is a beautiful place. But I'm saying no one wants to live next to a nuclear reactor, even if they already live on a blasted heath. In which case they'd find some endangered critter like the "blasted heathen" to justify their opposition.

But yeah, they should stick it next to the oilsands. That would make way more sense.

Opposition /:= Environmentalists

One of the main 'opposers' was Susan, who runs Vive Le Canada. She and lots of others in Peace River were opposing it because the location for the new reactors was right beside a well used and beautiful Provincial park.

Opposition = Environmentalists.

I didn't like the location, because it was hundreds of km from where the power would be needed (Fort Mac) and hundreds more from any major cities, where we could turn off the coal power plants and use cleaner Neutrons. And it was beside a Provincial park. The line losses from transmission could have powered a small town alone.

All you have shown is that some are.
