Kingston Uranium Mining Awareness event to illuminate that Nuclear Energy in not an ecological solution to Global Warming

by Lynn Daniluk, Uranium News

Critically acclaimed author Jim Hardin is scheduled to make a special presentation in Kingston, Ontario concerning the public health and environmental threat of uranium mining activities.

When: March 30, 6:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Where: Queen St. United Church, Kingston, Ontario

Jim Harding, is the author of Canada’s Deadly Secret: Saskatchewan Uranium and the Global Nuclear System.

He will be doing a presentation and there will also be a discussion on the uranium industry.

Other guest speakers include: Marilyn Crawford of CCAMU, Mireille LaPointe of the Ardoch Algonquin First Nation and Frank Morrison of CCAMU.

Canada’s Deadly Secret chronicles the struggle over Saskatchewan’s uranium mining, the front end of the global nuclear system. It digs into impacts on aboriginal rights, environmental health and the effect of free trade, tracing Saskatchewan’s pivotal role in nuclear proliferation and the spread of contamination and cancer.

Mr. Harding shows that nuclear energy cannot address Global Warming, nor is there a “peaceful atom.” The book goes inside biased public inquiries; it exposes PR campaigns of half-truths and untruths and the penetration of nuclear propaganda into our schools.

Canada’s Deadly Secret also highlights successes in holding back nuclear expansion. It presents an alternative, ecological vision for a sustainable future that not only takes up the invitation coming from renewable energies, it also links energy, environment, health, peace and democratic national sovereignty.

Jim Harding is a retired professor of justice studies at the University of Regina. He is a founding member of the Regina Group for a Non- Nuclear Society and was director of research for Prairie Justice Research at the University of Regina, where he headed up the Uranium Inquiries Project. Mr. Harding also acted as consultant to the National Film Board (NFB) award-winning film Uranium.
