Current proposals for nuclear expansion in Saskatchewan include nuclear reactors, uranium refining, conversion, enrichment, reprocessing, new uranium mines and high level nuclear waste storage. Much of the information about these expansion plans comes from the nuclear industry, specifically Bruce Power, Cameco and Areva. Saskatchewan citizens must examine these proposals carefully and critically by seeking out independent, non-industry sources. The organizations below employ the expertise of physicists, engineers, doctors, biologists, lawyers, economists and policy makers:

Committee For Future Generations

The Committee for Future Generations was formed on May 16, 2011 by a group of citizens concerned that northern Saskatchewan communities are being aggressively targeted by the Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO) to store Canada’s nuclear waste. In the summer of 2011, the Committee organized the 7000 Generations Walk Against Nuclear Waste from the Northern Village of Pinehouse to the Saskatchewan Legislature in Regina, to raise awareness, unite the North and South and gather signatures on a petition to the government for a legislated ban on nuclear waste storage and transportation in our province. On May 14, 2012 the walkers returned to the Legislature to present more than 12,000 signatures. You can also visit the group on Facebook.
