⚡️Bruce Unit 3 Back Online ⚡️
A record-setting 7 months ahead of schedule.
Saving ratepayers $150 million.
Congratulations @Bruce_Power and the entire team that made this possible.
Ontario just delivered a record-setting nuclear refurbishment @Bruce_Power 7 months ahead of schedule, saving the province over $150 million dollars.
Ontario is cementing our global position as a tier-one nuclear jurisdiction, with #MadeInCanada stamped on over 90% of our spend.

Canadians want us to be bold.
To do big things.
That's exactly why Ontario is moving forward with the @Bruce_Power nuclear expansion — Canada’s first large-scale nuclear build in over 30 years.
@fordnation is saying yes to 18,900 net-new jobs and made-in-Canada power for 4.8 million homes.

For the first time in 30 years, Ontario executed with millimetre precision the first foundation for a new nuclear reactor in a generation.
A historic step forward for the Western world as we build the G7’s first Small Modular Reactor, putting 18,000 Canadians to work.
Built by Ontario workers, backed by an 80% Canadian supply chain, and delivered with unprecedented discipline.
Ontario is leading the way, building the Western World's first Small Modular Reactor.
Momentum is behind us, with Yukon agreeing to explore deployment of SMRs in the North, signed with Minister of Energy, Mines, and Resources, Ted Laking.
We're transforming Canada into an energy superpower 🇨🇦

True leadership from @Sflecce and @samoosterhoff.
✅ competitively procured
💡1,300 new megawatts by 2030
‼️ 73 per cent cheaper than the bad Liberal contracts
To keep up with fast rising demand, Ontario successfully completed the provinces’ largest competitive procurement.
The contrast is stark — the Liberals sole-sourced energy contracts 10x above market.
@samoosterhoff and I announced IESO competitively selected projects 73% LOWER than the Liberals.
An all-of the-above strategy under @fordnation that has positioned Ontario as the best and most reliable grid in North America.
@ONcleanair This is a downright lie.
Conflating an approved construction budget with operating expenses to mislead the public for your own ideological gain is shameful.
⚡️DARLINGTON UNIT 4 BACK ONLINE EARLIER THAN EXPECTED
📆142 days ahead of schedule (4.5 months)
🔋back at full power
✅$150 million under budget
This is a testament of the strength and skill of Ontario’s nuclear workers and industry completing the world’s largest refurb.
Ontario’s nuclear advantage is the envy of the world.
With Darlington Unit 4 back on the grid at full power, Ontario & @opg have completed the world’s largest nuclear refurbishment nearly five months ahead of schedule & $150M under budget.
This marks the full completion of the Darlington refurbishment & stands as a true made-in-Canada success story, with over 90% of project spending staying in Canada, generating $90B in economic benefits & supporting more than 14,000 good-paying jobs.
Great piece published in the Beach Metro about the insanity of hosting the city's largest polluter beside a new housing development. It's time to shutter the Portlands gas plant and replace it with wind and solar, storage and efficiency.

Celebrating the hard-working and talented superwomen on my team who go above and beyond.
A small way to thank them as my guests at the @OntarioPCParty Women in Politics Ladies High Tea. They are proud daughters, mothers, sisters, and friends who define strength and courage through their example.
I have always believed that men have an important role to play dedicated to breaking down every barrier for every girl.
That important work continues this International Women's Day.
I was thrilled to stop by and congratulate Don Cherry in person on his appointment to the Order of Ontario.
Don is a great Canadian patriot and a champion for our country, our province and the game of hockey. Congratulations!
Ontario went from 15th to second in the world for attracting mining investment.
To get to number one, we're launching a new Critical Minerals Strategy — to create jobs and end the ripping and shipping of Canadian resources abroad.
Under @fordnation and @Sflecce’s leadership Ontario is now 2nd in the world and number one in Canada for mining investment.
Exactly the message that will be demonstrated at @the_PDAC.
Ethical, reliable resources ready to power the world. 🇨🇦

The Darlington Refurbishment’s scope was clearly defined and its construction was completed ahead of schedule and under budget - another major infrastructure success that proves that Ontario can build big.
