Fwiw, there are 8 reactors on site, 2 of which have not gone through refurbishment and are offline (A1&4). 2 are scheduled to go offline this year (A2&3) and the remainder (B reactors) will be scheduled for refurb starting in '27 through mid 30s. Makes sense to do this without costs of rebuilding new site, reusing parts from already or planned shut down reactors, and local experience with refurbs already done at nearby Darlington.OPG (Ontario Power Generation) will seek permission to refurbish the 4 nuclear reactors of the Pickering B Plant. They are currently due to shut down in the near term, having had their licenses extended already.

To be fair……. He still isn’t going to get my vote.
Why? He’s actually been the better of the worst possible alternatives. He’s done better on transit than any Liberal Premier like McGuinty of Wynne.
Yes, he has done a few useful things but his government is clearly corrupt (e.g. Greenbelt and MZOs) and FAR too right-wing for my taste. I admit, it's shades of grey but, in general, the Tories are VERY dark grey!
Errrrr a few things come to mind, Greenbelt, buckabeer, unethical behaviour. Transit? Still waiting on that subway, subway, subway he build. Oh the reasons why he will never get my vote started the time he told me I was a piece of shit after I spoke up for the disabled people. He is corrupt and the list is endless
It’s still on the paper napkins, oh yeah the Scarborough LRT that was canceled (under his stint at council, where he and his council Cons canceled a fully funded rapid transit plan. When is the Eglinton LRT opening? Since the TTC is not fully funded by the province, the bulk is Toronto’s responsibility. Metrolinx (GO) is a provincial crown organization.
