Dear Member of Parliament,
I have learned that the Standing Committee on Natural Resources has
been studying legislation which would limit the liability of nuclear
power operators and I am deeply concerned about what this could mean
for Canadians.
The proposed limit of just $650 million is far below the standards of
other major developed countries in Europe and of our neighbours in the
United States. Other governments have seen fit to make nuclear
operators pay the full costs of the risks they create. Why don’t
Canadians deserve the same coverage?
The limit is also far below the costs of any serious accident. Either
victims will not be compensated, or taxpayers will be asked to foot
the bill.
As a Parliamentarian, it is your job is to protect the best interests
of Canadians. That is why we, the people, elect you.
Don’t pass Bill C-20 unless the limit is raised.
Sincerely,
[your name here]
