More people die in motor vehicle accidents in one year in Saskatchewan than have been killed in nuclear accidents world wide in the last 75 years. More people die in Canada in two weeks by suicide  than have been killed in nuclear accidents world wide in the last 75 years.
The irrational opposition to the one fuel that can reduce carbon emmissions world wide is an indictment on our education system.

I agree, and of course the Fukushima accident helped cast a shadow over the system which is misguided. A nuclear plant built on a fault line, next to an ocean, with the backup generators in the basement. Who the hell designed that? I think we can do a lot better now having learned from such events and carry on and clean a lot of that coal/diesel smoke out of the air which kills a hell of a lot more than nuclear plants have.
