To Be Filed Under: Not Going to Happen

The government will be deep in the cold, cold ground before they let provinces achieve energy independence: 

Alberta's Jason Kenney became the fourth premier to sign an agreement supporting the development of small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) in Canada on Wednesday.

Kenney signed a memorandum of understanding with the premiers of Ontario, New Brunswick and Saskatchewan.

The provinces also released a feasibility report prepared by Ontario Power Generation, Bruce Power, NB Power and SaskPower which gives a potential timeline for development and deployment of SMRs and assesses their competitiveness with other non-emitting energy sources.

In 2019, Doug Ford, Blaine Higgs and Scott Moe and committed to collaborate on developing small modular reactor technology. The Alberta government announced in August that it would enter into the existing agreement.
