The Case for a Nuclear-Free Ontario

Abstract:  As the Canadian Nuclear Association steps up its 20 million dollar campaign to sell Canadians on the nuclear industry, the Nuclear Awareness Project works to educate us on points the other groups of power brokers don't talk about. Little information is available about the harmful effects of low level radiation, or radioactive isotopes in the food chain, topics included in this booklet. By reminding us about nuclear hazards evident in uranium mining, unsafe reactors and unclear waste, The Nuclear Power Booklet shows how disasters like Chernobyl can happen. But the booklet also talks about solutions and alternatives -- like conservation, solar power and natural gas.
