EXCERPT: "A bucolic Ontario farm community will go to the polls in October in an historic online vote that will decide whether their quiet rural town will be transformed by a multibillion-dollar project that will give Canada a permanent tomb for millions of bundles of used highly radioactive nuclear fuel.
The search for a place to put them stretches back decades — one that has now zeroed-in on just two Ontario communities: Ignace (246 kilometres northwest of Thunderbay) and the farming town of Teeswater (170 kilometres north of London), part of the Municipality of South Bruce.
On Wednesday, town officials in South Bruce published the terms of the deal for voters in the town to decide in an online referendum that will take place Oct. 28. . . . "
