Discussions about building a second nuclear reactor at Point Lepreau have begun in, of all places, Florida.
Provincial Energy Minister Jack Keir is in the Sunshine state talking about the possibility with the French nuclear engineering group, Areva.
The Conservation Council's David Coon calls the whole thing insane.
Energy Probe in Toronto doubts whether anything will get off the ground but Coon says it could if the province offers sufficient concessions and Areva is assured of access to the U.S. market.
