CNSC president "melts down" over "fear-mongering" by anti-nuke groups
The Canadian Press has reported that Michael Binder, President of the Canadian Nuclear Safety (sic) Commission (CNSC), publicly suffered a "melt down" over "fear-mongering" by "professional" anti-nuclear groups regarding the shipment of 16 radioactive steam generators on the Great Lakes. Binder and the CNSC approved the shipment on Feb. 4th. Not mentioned by Binder or the press coverage is the fact that the vast majority of concerned citizens comprising the environmental coalition opposing the radioactive waste shipment on the Great Lakes are volunteers. Some of them have been volunteer anti-nuclear activists for decades on end.
