    True, but a reliable supply exists with your friends in Canada. Nuclear has to be secondary to wind and solar, but in a fossil fuel free world it still has a place.

      “Surely this time relying on partner nations won’t get us in trouble”

        What is the EU if not partners you count on? It’s not wise to go it alone. Friends and partners are good to have. Also as I stated, nuclear comes after wind and solar.

          My point was relying on Canada for Uranium is like relying on the US for, I don’t know, weapons or something, you’re only one election away from being cut off a resource

            I totally get that. But that is really a fact of life. No country can afford to live on only its own resources.

            Edit: Canada has always wanted to sell its resources and is not aspiring empire. So one election away isn’t accurate. Both major parties will gladly sell. It is vital to us, and makes us just that more reliable a partner.
