Nuclear power may be green but it's nowhere near clean, a prominent nuclear critic with the Sierra Club of Canada said yesterday.
"Make no mistake. Once you opt for nuclear power in Alberta, you are consenting to making this province a radioactive waste dump," said Dr. Gordon Edwards, president of the Canadian Coalition for Nuclear Responsibility.
His visit to Edmonton was part of a whirlwind tour of Alberta during which he also addressed communities in the Peace Country and Whitecourt - proposed construction sites for controversial nuclear reactors.
Liberal and NDP officials have already expressed their discomfort over bringing nuclear energy to Alberta, and Edwards supported their views.
"Nuclear power is like a lobster trap - it's easy to get in, but impossible to get out," Edwards said.

Well Edmonton's not far off from being a radioactive waste dump as it is already so I dont see it as much of a loss....
