Port Hope: A Question of Power (46x6)

Date de diffusion: Nov 16, 2005

Port Hope, Ontario has all the hallmarks of an ideal small Ontario town, with one of the loveliest main streets in Canada. But Port Hope also has one big problem — thousands of tones of radioactive waste. And now the industry that created the problem wants to introduce a new potential risk in town: the proposed production of an enriched uranium fuel. Port Hope: A Question of Power follows a community for more than a year as it struggles to find answers to questions concerning the health and safety implications of the proposed project.
