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.

A negative Doppler effect has been observed in measurements on a metallic uranium sample (enriched to 93% in U235) placed in a typical fast-reactor spectrum which has a median fission energy of 195 keV. The plausibility of the negative sign is supported on theoretical grounds, although with the use of standard analytical techniques and the limited number of resonance parameters at present available, it cannot be calculated for this spectrum. The value for was found to be -5.65 × 10-6/°C. New measurements on U238 have been made, and the data on Th232, previously published, have been extended to 930 C. The agreement between analytical and experimental values for the latter two materials is good.
