Nuclear Energy Strategy announced at CNA2026
At the Canadian Nuclear Association Conference (CNA2026) in Ottawa, Ontario, on April 29, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Tim Hodgson announced that Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) is developing a new Nuclear Energy Strategy for the country. The strategy, which is slated to be released by the end of this year, will be based on four objectives: 1) enabling new nuclear builds across Canada, 2) being a global supplier and exporter of nuclear technology and services, 3) expanding uranium production and nuclear fuel opportunities, and 4) developing new Canadian nuclear innovations, including in both fission and fusion technologies.

The opening plenary will reflect on the profound and lasting impact of the landmark Reactor Safety Study (WASH-1400), published in 1975. Widely regarded as a foundational milestone in the development of probabilistic safety assessment (PSA), WASH-1400 transformed nuclear safety analysis and inspired generations of research and practice. The session is dedicated to the memory of two of its principal architects, Norman Rasmussen and Saul Levine, and will feature reflections and insights from former contributors to the study, as well as students, colleagues, and experts who have built upon its legacy. Through personal memories and technical perspectives, the session will honor the study’s enduring influence on the PSA discipline.
