It's worth noting that Canada produces the majority of medical isotopes, enough so that there was a worldwide shortage when one of the CANDU reactors went offline for repairs a few years back. We could use more for that reason alone, but not that many more. As much as I like the idea of nuclear, I think it will be eclipsed by renewables, hydro, and cheaper battery storage. That said, in some parts of canada nuclear is the most reliable option.
