Canada’s nuclear strategy is really two strategies—and only one is working

# Editorial Summary This piece argues that Canada's Nuclear Energy Strategy actually comprises two distinct approaches—a technology-neutral framework leveraging existing regulatory, fuel-cycle, and supply-chain advantages, and a champion strategy favoring CANDU reactors—and presents empirical evidence that the former has driven the sector's recent growth while the latter may be misaligned with global market realities and provincial risk considerations. The submission's core strength is its use of concrete data (17% workforce growth, $30 billion light-water export opportunity) to challenge federal policy priorities, though it could be strengthened by addressing counterarguments more deeply and clarifying what specific policy changes it recommends.
