> We want to convince Premier McGuinty and his opposition rival PC  
> leader Tim Hudak not to spend $36 billion on nuclear plans – $26  
> billion to build risky new reactors at the Darlington site east of  
> Toronto to replace the aging Pickering nuclear station, which will  
> close by 2020, and another $10 billion to rebuild old Darlington  
> reactors.
>
> This plan will drive up electricity bills and divert billions of  
> dollars from investment in cheaper and cleaner green energy sources.
>
> A recent report by Greenpeace and the Pembina Institute shows that  
> cheaper green energy could replace Pickering and protect Ontarians  
> from the high-cost and risks of new reactors.
>
> I want to ask for your help in our Stop Darlington campaign. Below  
> you'll find ways to take action, and what we've done already.
