Continuing to operate the third oldest nuclear plant in North America, surrounded by millions of people, while banking on a system of aging pressure tubes to not fail is simply rolling the dice with the lives of people throughout the GTA. This plant has a long history of safety problems and is now operating well past its design life. Given its location, this is scandalous. We call on the Ontario Gov't to order OPG to begin shutting down Pickering Nuclear ASAP and stop taking chances with our lives. We have many better options to keep our lights on -- relying on an aging first generation nuclear plant surrounded by millions of people should not be one of them.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><a href="https://www.cleanairalliance.org/stunning-revelations-about-pickering-nuclear-stations-safety/">https://www.cleanairalliance.org/stunning-revelations-about-pickering-nuclear-stations-safety/</a></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><a href="https://www.cleanairalliance.org/tubes/">https://www.cleanairalliance.org/tubes/</a> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><b><span lang=EN-US style='color:red'>Rethinking Energy -- 100% Solar, Wind and Batteries Is Just the Beginning</span></b><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PM2RxWtF4Ds">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PM2RxWtF4Ds</a></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><b><span lang=EN-US style='color:red'>Ontario NDP's Ambitious Climate Plan </span></b><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>I was a guest on TVO's The Agenda March 23 addressing Ontario NDP's climate plan.

But none of the nuclear-armed states have joined the Treaty, and all are expanding or modernizing their nuclear arsenals. This webinar, hosted by UFPJ, will provide an update on nuclear weapons policies and programs and an overview of relevant developments in international law. It also will suggest the need to rethink familiar approaches to disarmament, and to shift the focus of disarmament advocacy from recognizing the effects of nuclear weapons to analyzing the causes of nuclear arms racing and of the risks of war among nuclear-armed countries – the same root causes driving many of our other most pressing crises.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US><a href="https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_PdHOaD-URuiuI4-lkIN_dw">https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_PdHOaD-URuiuI4-lkIN_dw</a> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>_______________________</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>_______________________</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><b><span lang=EN-US style='color:#7030A0'>Climate Crisis Federal Budget?</span></b><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-US>Wed.

Will they Build Back Fossil Free, creating stable, well-paid, green jobs? Will they truly support precarious workers, communities of colour, seniors, and women?
