The Canadian Government set up a &#8220;Siting Task Force&#8221; to find a &#8220;willing host community&#8221; in Ontario to accept voluminous long-lived radioactive wastes from Canada&#8217;s supplying uranium to the US nuclear weapons program from 1941 to 1972. The Task Force ultimately came up empty-handed. Today, in 2018, the most expensive municipal environmental cleanup in Canada&#8217;s history is underway at Port Hope, to collect and consolidate a million cubic metres of radioactive wastes from ravines, roadways, the harbor and hundreds of residential properties, in two huge mounds just a few kilometres north of Lake Ontario. The mounds are designed to last for 500 years. The radon-generating wastes will remain radiotoxic for tens of thousands of years.<br \/>\n<!-- END description --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--START LINK TO ORIGINAL VIDEO --><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=FlTXyiDV8DQ\">Link to original video<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--END LINK TO ORIGINAL VIDEO --><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b><a href=\"https:\/\/wp.ccnr.org\/fr\/audio-visual-directory\/\">Audio-Visual Directory<\/a><\/b><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Edwards speaks about Port Hope Radioactive Wastes Mar 7 1990, Atikokan; five parts PART 2 \u2013 GO TO: \u2022 Port Hope Radioactive Wastes 2 (Edwards, A&#8230; Dr. Gordon Edwards speaks to citizens of Atikokan, north of Lake Superior, on characteristics of radioactive wastes from uranium processing at Port Hope, just east of Toronto.
