Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for the interventions.
I want to be clear that I will be supporting this amendment. The reason is that I've been actively opposed to the storage proposal of a DGR, a deep geological repository, in the Bruce-Huron area.
For members who are not aware, this is to build a nuclear storage facility within a kilometre of the Great Lakes. It would actually be the height of the CN Tower. There was actually a turning down of that proposal by Saugeen First Nation, and then the subsequent proposal just went next door to the Saugeen First Nation and has actually created quite a conflict.
To conclude, this is a policy that Canada promised never to do under then foreign affairs minister Joe Clark in the Brian Mulroney government. Therefore, until there's resolution to this situation, I will not be supporting the expansion at this point in time.
Thank you, Mr. Chair and committee.
