Ben Heard authored Small Modular Reactors in the Australian Context and I do think everyone everywhere should give it a quick read. Certainly this sort of communications we need everywhere nuclear has not yet been tried, such as my home province of Alberta.
As a Canadian it was quite interesting to hear how well our SMR Roadmap is perceived in Australia. Hope we don't mess it up... see below.
Australian Nuclear Association allowed me to edit his talk. Ben ran an independent audio/video capture, so we had higher quality assets to work with. I'd recommend any pro-nuke do the same when giving an important presentation.
Dr. Chris Keefer challenges OCAA to Debate on Nuclear

...retweeting (or quote-tweeting) could really help nuclear in Canada. We've seen anti-nukes humiliated before in debate and I except Keefer would trounce OCAA.
Keefer was at COP26 and scored some amazing interviews with participants:
German representative Stephan Haufe:

Canada's Minister of the Environment, Steven Guilbeault, who is anti-nuclear:

...which (in turn) led to amazing coverage back here in Canada...

I'm sure many of you have been frustrated when media outlets only speak to anti-nuclear activists when crafting a story on nuclear. I think C4NE.ca has managed to secure a spot in (some) media outlets's rolodexes.
It was only since the last re-election of Justin Trudeau that Canada has been saddled with an anti-nuclear Steven Guilbeault as our Minister of the Environment. For some reason JT shuffled this Greenpeace guy in. What a mess. Hopefully this won't be permanent.
If you're Canadian this could be worth writing to your MP and to Justin Trudeau about.
