Burns my buns a little that saskatchewan is sitting all the uranium in the world, the middle of the prairies being one of the safest possible places for a nuclear fission reactor, and yet we are not pumping out nuclear power plants and associated science like no ones business. I get that Nuclear Fission has downsides but just having the critical mass of knowledge behind these reactors (not to mention all that potential for extra power for export...) would be worth it. Imagine if we were in a position to be designing a nuclear fusion reactor based on this scientific development? Not a coincidence that Nuclear Fusion model reactors are all being built in places that had large nuclear fission power programs.
