This comes on the heels of Ontario Power Generation (OPG) failing to supply the CNSC with reliable data (scrape samples) to show that the Pickering nuclear station’s pressure tubes are still fit for service." "The recent bad news from Bruce makes it critically important that the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission (CNSC) do much more to ensure the safety of all these stations, including Pickering. This has to go beyond sending polite letters to nuclear operators asking them to revisit their computer models. We believe that Pickering must be shut down immediately until there is ironclad proof that its tubing is still fit for service. The only way to get that proof is to take physical samples from the tubes while the pla
