Open letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau
Open Letter To:
Justin Trudeau, Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs and Youth; Carolyn Bennett, Minister of Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs; James Carr, Minister of Natural Resources; Catherine McKenna, Minister of Environment and Climate Change
Dear Justin Trudeau, Carolyn Bennett, James Carr and Catherine McKenna,
We learned recently that the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission is proposing massive changes to the license for the Chalk River Laboratories, site of a proposed radioactive megadump, including removal of 28 conditions of the license itself and removal of several hundred “compliance verification criteria”. We are appalled at this radical move toward deregulation to benefit the multinational consortium, Canadian National Energy Alliance, whose Canadian partner, SNC Lavalin, is currently debarred from the World Bank for ten years and facing criminal charges in Canada for fraud, bribery and corruption.
