Canadian Nuclear Stuff
by
James Bredin
Nuclear power they say is essential,
Like Chernobyl it has certain potential,
Like Three Mile Island -- a near meltdown,
Expensive too but covered by the crown,
And all those nuclear physicists types,
With their AECL propaganda hypes,
Cost taxpayers $billions day in day out,
Like a new religion they have no doubt,
Unfortunately this makes me feel assured,
That leaked radiation may be obscured.
They tell us the CANDU reactor is secure,
No reason for Canadians to feel unsure,
But people who are all that committed,
Could hide flaws that were never admitted.
