'Start their life over': Alberta county divided after vote over planned nuclear plant

QUOTE: "Amid the sprawling canola fields, white spruce and jack pine trees, fireweed and goldenrods of northern Alberta, Pat McNamara is having a case of nuclear déjà vu. Two decades ago, he lived in Port Hope, Ont."

Aaron Sousa, The Canadian Press - Times Colonist - November 15, 2025

EXCERPT: "Two decades ago, he lived in Port Hope, Ont., northeast of Toronto, in a community dealing with decades of nuclear ground contamination, including at his own daughter’s schoolyard.

He has since moved to the County of Northern Lights, halfway between Edmonton and the Northwest Territories.

When he learned earlier this year that residents, notably farmers, hadn't heard about a proposed nuclear plant for the area -- similar to one first proposed 15 years ago -- he wanted to spread the word that when things go wrong, the damage is generational.

"These people are building up those properties and those farms to hand down to their kids and grandkids," McNamara said in an interview. "They're not going to be able to do that."

While he got word to the public, his Northern Action Alliance pushed for the county's council to hold a vote.

His efforts succeeded last month when a non-binding plebiscite showed more than half of voters opposed the proposal for a two-towered plant, the first of its kind in Alberta, capable of powering 4.8 million homes.

A roughly equal number of voters also said they wish to learn more about the pros and cons. . . . "

Nuclear Fraud from Ottawa

Ent Work - December 2, 2025 (See ATTACHMENTS BELOW TEXT)
entwork@hotmail.com

Hello,

The attached papers were written by the Northern Action Alliance in response to the Impact Assessment on the Peace River Nuclear Project conducted by IAAC, the CNSC, and Energy Alberta.

“Nuclear Fraud from Ottawa” details the corrupt behaviour we’ve had to deal with from IAAC (Impact Assessment Agency of Canada), the CNSC (Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission) and Energy Alberta for the past eight months.

“Reactor Choices and Costs” contains a short history of SNC Lavalin and Westinghouse; the reactor builders. It lists some of the nuclear debts that Taxpayers must pay for in Canada and the USA. There’s also a short discussion of the merits of using natural gas to generate electricity instead of nuclear reactors.

Please share these papers as widely as possible.

ATTACHMENT #1: NUCLEAR FRAUD FROM OTTAWA

EXCERPT: "The farming community of Weberville in Northern Alberta has been targeted for the second time in 15 years by the nuclear industry and the Canadian government. Residents rejected nuclear reactors in 2010, and they don’t want them in 2025! . . . ."

ATTACHMENT #3: REACTOR CHOICES AND COSTS

EXCERPT: "The prospect of nuclear reactors in northern Alberta frightens many people. They would be even more concerned if they knew the costs imposed on taxpayers and electricity customers, as well as the history of the companies that want to build them: SNC LAVALIN (ATKINSRÉALIS) and Westinghouse Electric Company. . . . ."

Bonjour,

Les documents ci-joints ont été rédigés par la Northern Action Alliance en réponse à l’Étude d’impact sur le Peace River Nuclear Project menée par l’IAAC, la CNSC et Energy Alberta.
"La Fraude Nucléaire Provenant d'Ottawa" décrit le comportement corrompu auquel nous avons dû faire face de la part de l’IAAC (Impact Assessment Agency of Canada), de la CNSC (Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission) et d’Energy Alberta au cours des huit derniers mois.
"Choix de Réacteurs et Coûts" présente une brève histoire de SNC Lavalin et de Westinghouse, les constructeurs de réacteurs. Il dresse la liste de certaines dettes nucléaires que les contribuables doivent payer au Canada et aux États-Unis. Le document contient également une courte analyse des avantages d’utiliser le gaz naturel pour produire de l’électricité plutôt que des réacteurs nucléaires.
Merci de faire circuler ces documents aussi largement que possible.

ATTACHMENT #2: LA FRAUDE NUCLÉAIRE PROVENANT D’OTTAWA

EXCERPT: "La communauté agricole de Weberville, dans le nord de l’Alberta, a été ciblée pour la seconde fois en quinze ans par l’industrie nucléaire et le gouvernement canadien. Les résidents ont rejeté les réacteurs nucléaires en 2010, et
ils n’en veulent toujours pas en 2025! . . . . "

ATTACHMENT #4: CHOIX DE RÉACTEURS ET COÛTS

EXCERPT: "La perspective de réacteurs nucléaires dans le nord de l’Alberta effraie beaucoup de gens. Ils seraient encore plus inquiets s’ils connaissaient les coûts induits aux payeurs de taxes et aux clients des fournisseurs d’électricité, ainsi que l’historique des entreprises qui souhaitent les construire: SNC LAVALIN et Westinghouse Electric Company.
