600 metres below the countryside

It’s to be stored in bedrock more than half a kilometre down, sealed in an impermeable polymer.

It’s not perfect, but it’s a hell of a lot better than oil/gas which store their waste in your lungs.

People buy cases and cases of bottled drinking water here every day in northern Ontario where we are surrounded by probably the world's cleanest fresh water supply. The bottled water people buy is all from agricultural farm lands in southern Ontario and Quebec bottled by companies who pay nothing for the water and pennies for the plastic. People pay companies a fortune for the plastic that holds highly treated municipal tap water to drink.

Is it any wonder that officials don't really think twice about dumping nuclear waste right next to one of Canada's most densely populated centres?

We have millions and millions of acres of empty land across all of Canada from the high Arctic to the US border ... and someone thought it was a good idea to consider dumping nuclear waste about 100km from Canada's largest city.

Teeswater is also the same area of the province where all those cheap bottle water companies harvest most of their water.

The paving over of gta farm land is worse, creates a much bigger footprint

Hope this will put you at ease

I mean we like paving over our farmland for strip malls and SFH subdivisions as well so it's not a new thing for us to disrepsect our limited supply of farmland. Who needs food security anyway?
