April 26 and 29 Webinars: The Bay of Fundy: Natural Wonder or Nuclear Industry Test Site?

[Peggy Cameron]

Please circulate widely:

Learn more about why the federal government’s plan to spend $50.5 Million funding for the untested/unproven Small Nuclear Reactor in New Brunswick, is a bad idea. Two webinars set up and co-hosted by the Coalition for Responsible Energy Development in NB (CRED NB).  This is not "clean energy” - the Harper government sold Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd to SNCLavalin for $15 million. Why are the Trudeau feds now throwing citizens’ tax dollars at this sector for an unknown, unproven technology?
