83 civil society organizations, including CELA, have signed a letter addressed to Prime Minster Justin Trudeau and Minister of Natural Resources, Jonathan Wilkinson voicing concerns about the Draft Integrated Strategy for Radioactive Waste Management (ISRW) issued by the Nuclear Waste Management Organization (NWMO).
Canadian Environmental Law Association (CELA) members Theresa McClenaghan (Executive Director and Counsel) and Kerrie Blaise (Northern Services Legal Counsel) present and answer questions regarding environmental justice and why it is relevant. The panelists also discuss what community willingness is in the context of the Nuclear Waste Management Organization's (NWMO) Adaptive Phased Management (APM) project for site selection of a Deep Geological Repository (DGR) for Canada's high level nuclear fuel waste.
This webinar explores questions around consent and willingness in the context of the very long term challenge of nuclear waste. Who decides? And who decides who the decision-makers are?
In this letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Minister of Natural Resources Seamus O'Reagan, CELA joins Greenpeace and Northwatch in raising serious concerns about the Government of Canada planned review of Canada's radioactive waste policies. Download the letter here:…
