- "'After Fukushima: Does nuclear power have a future in Canada ?' (May 2011, p. 1) draws most of its content from a professional anti-nuclear activist. Less than one paragraph is based on comments from someone in the nuclear industry. Respected academics knowledgeable about nuclear energy were conspicuously absent in the article. My perspective is based on having been a former vice president and general manager of the Canadian Nuclear Association. In the mid-1980s, I was an Anglican representative on the organizing committee of the Interfaith Program for Public Awareness of Nuclear Issues (IPPANI), which studies all aspects of nuclear energy over about two years. I recall the Anglican diocese of Toronto contributed some $5,000 towards that study". [Text of entire article.]
