The thing with nuclear is that its timescale is too big. We can't wait the decade for new plants or to bring SMRs to volume. In that time.we can absolutely cover everything with solar, add wind turbines, and invest in grid-level storage. By the time nuclear would come online, we could already have zero carbon energy with zero nuclear waste.

Solar, in Canada. You really need to watch the video that you're supposedly responding to, here's a Youtube link with the same video in case that's of your preference https://youtu.be/8rcMwmGuGSo

Yep, solar in Canada. I've had 10kW on my roof for 8 years, solar in Canada is viable. And getting moreso every time the price drops, which it keeps doing.

and of course you get all of your electricity from solar during winter, oh wait, you don't.
