Would you bury poison beside your well?

Ontario Power Generation is planning to bury radioactive nuclear waste beside Lake Huron

Ontario Power Generation plans to bury
radioactive nuclear waste approximately
400 metres from Lake Huron.
Scientists cannot guarantee that this
Nuclear Waste Dump will not leak.
The Great Lakes provide fresh drinking water
for 40 million people in two countries.
Why would we bury radioactive nuclear waste beside this precious resource?
Ontario Power Generation, the applicant, states
this underground dump "is not likely to result
in any significant residual adverse effects to
human health or the environment, including
Lake Huron and the Great Lakes."
Is "not likely" good enough?
The radioactive nuclear waste must stay
isolated in this dump for 100,000 years.
The Great Lakes were created by an ice age
about 12,000 years ago.
An underground nuclear dump in limestone
is unproven and unprecedented.
