[#]Quebec is looking to reactivate #Gentilly2, the only #nuclear power plant here, which was closed in 2012, in order to meet electric power demand with #Canada phasing out gas-powered cars by 2035. Reactivation of Gentilly-2 is said to be for 2036.
This is shocking and incredibly sad. I can't even begin to comprehend why they would go to this level. It's been more than 10 yrs since it’s decommission, the 800-staff have moved on or retired. They won't find enough ppl to run this thing.

Also, the location of Gentilly-2 is right inbetween Montreal & Quebec City, a 2hr drive, right across from Trois-Rivières, and right on the St-Lawrence river. I have MAJOR concerns of a nuclear meltdown. Have you guys seen the control room?? The nuclear plant was built in 1973, its lifespan is spent. An absolute waste of time and money.
