They're not quite as gung-ho as you are, Mr. Keefer. They raise the serious questions about the risk of proliferation, negative environmental impacts and mixed effects on human health. They talk about the long timeline it takes to actually get one of them up and running. They talk about the risk of accidents and radioactive waste management. Those are the IPCC reports.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7108606\" data-originallang=\"en\">I'd like to focus on the issue of proliferation. These small modular reactors are different from CANDU. Mr. Keefer, we're going to be pitching this technology to the global south, where it's possible to extract plutonium. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7108607\" data-originallang=\"en\">How are you going to address that issue with regard to the threat of nuclear proliferation?</p>",

Le GIEC n'est pas aussi enthousiasme que vous, monsieur Keefer. Il soul\u00e8ve des questions s\u00e9rieuses \u00e0 propos du risque de prolif\u00e9ration, des r\u00e9percussions n\u00e9gatives sur l'environnement et des effets mitig\u00e9s sur la sant\u00e9 humaine. Il parle du long d\u00e9lai n\u00e9cessaire pour b\u00e2tir et mettre en service une centrale. Il parle du risque d'accident et de la gestion des d\u00e9chets radioactifs. Ce sont des points soulev\u00e9s dans les rapports du GIEC.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7108606\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais mettre l'accent sur la question de la prolif\u00e9ration. Ces petits r\u00e9acteurs modulaires diff\u00e8rent des r\u00e9acteurs CANDU. Monsieur Keefer, nous allons faire valoir cette technologie aupr\u00e8s de l'h\u00e9misph\u00e8re Sud, o\u00f9 il est possible d'extraire du plutonium.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7108607\" data-originallang=\"en\">Comment allez-vous aborder cette question par rapport au risque de prolif\u00e9ration nucl\u00e9aire.</p>"
