I do not support this proposal

I understand that "Transportation of nuclear and non-nuclear materials within existing highways and railways is independently regulated and ongoing, does not require changes to current infrastructure or regulations and would continue regardless of the Project’s implementation. These activities are governed by existing federal and provincial standards, such as the CNSC’s Packaging and Transport of Nuclear Substances Regulations and the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Regulations and are not considered part of the Project’s designated or incidental activities. For the impact assessment and licensing process, transportation-related effects are therefore limited to traffic and transportation
activities along the new access roads, site roads, and rail spur constructed for the Project, and activities related to the Project within broader transportation networks remain outside the Project’s scope".  However, I cannot see how a project can be approved if there is concern about the safety of the transporation of material from the site of origin to the site of deposit.  The concerns of all communities to which the material will be exposed from site of origin to site of deposit must be consulted and give consent. 

The highway system that this material would be transported along has had hundreds of collisions (many fatal) each year. I am concerned that the hazardous material travelling along the road corridor will put all of the communities at risk should there be an unfortunate and likely incident that a collision occurs.  I can't see the logic of the material being safe to transport, yet not safe enough to keep where it is.  

I do not support this proposal.
