Green Party leader condemns Sask. nuclear report By Kerry Benjoe, Leader-Post April 17, 2009

REGINA — The leaders of the provincial and federal Green Party slammed the report compiled by the Uranium Development Partnership on Friday.

Elizabeth May, leader of the Green Party of Canada, called the report a sham. She said Green Party members from around the world oppose the development of nuclear power.

“The industry doesn’t make sense. It will never survive without tremendous government subsidies,” said May.

She said speaking as a federal leader, this is something that Saskatchewan people should go into with their eyes wide open……………………”The so-called environmental rep is a paid lobbyist for nuclear industry. This is a sham. This is not the report on which a government should base decisions,” said May. “This is the equivalent of a report from lobbyists telling government how they want them to spend their money.”
