#EagleLakeFirstNation challenges #NWMO in court
By Mike Stimpson, 2 January 2025
EAGLE LAKE – "#EagleLake #FirstNation is challenging the #NuclearWasteManagementOrganization’s site selection in court, and that’s more than welcome news to Neecha Dupuis.
"'I love it,' Dupuis, a member of the #Ojibway Nation of #Saugeen (#SavantLake), said from Ottawa. 'Just pure love.'
"Eagle Lake’s chief 'came and walked with us' in this year’s #WalkAgainstNuclearWaste, she noted.
"'It’s all coming together, like one giant dream catcher,' Dupuis said.
"Dupuis said she doesn’t understand #WabigoonLakeOjibway Nation’s decision to move forward with the NWMO on possibly constructing a deep geological repository, or DGR, for high-level nuclear waste.
"'For them to choose nuclear waste over the land, that doesn’t make sense. It doesn’t make sense at all.'"

Canada: #NuclearWaste Petition Tabled in Parliament
Ottawa – "A petition calling on the Government to provide oversight of a controversial nuclear waste burial project has been tabled in the federal House of Commons, with a response required within 45 calendar days.
"Created by #Northwatch project coordinator Brennain Lloyd and sponsored by Nipissing-Timiskaming MP Anthony Rota, the petition gained the signatures of 3,327 Canadians who joined the call on the federal government to require the #NuclearWasteManagementOrganization (#NWMO) to demonstrate that it has the #consent of residents and communities, including #FirstNations and Treaty Organizations, along the transportation route and in the region of and downstream of the candidate repository site(s) before selecting a site.
"'Canadians expect a fair and accountable process when it comes to projects of this size, risk and long-term consequence', said petition organizer Brennain Lloyd, coordinator with Northwatch and an organizer with the Northern Ontario alliance #WeTheNuclearFreeNorth."
