I (finally) got to tour a CANDU with other C4NE volunteers! Bruce Power!
Afterwards, John Peevers took my questions. Can we build more CANDU? Does it make sense to encourage anti-nuclear activists to tour nuclear facilities? What does John make of recent polling data showign regional disparity in support for nuclear?

The Great Canadian Nuclear Debate: Dr. Chris Keefer vs Dr. Gordon Edwards.
Hosted by the Centre for International Policy Studies at the University of Ottawa on 2023-04-25. I've tightened the original up by 44m and added supplementary visuals. (As there isn't much happening visually, including a camera locked on the audience towards the end, instead of showing the debaters.)
Above is an excerpt focusing on cost and speed of nuclear as we experience in Canada. It is 8 minutes long, and I encourage Canadians to rip such content and post it wherever they can.

An 2023 excerpt from my own 2022 video, where Mark talks about "burning" uranium.
I challenged this (and still challenge this) as vocabulary which enables the majority's (incorrect) belief that nuclear is high-carbon. I prefer "liberate" though I don't have a drop-in replacement for burn. Unfortunately "fission" is often too specific when fissile is being bred from fertile.

THREE-BODY Disembiggened is my own fan-edit (from Tencent Video's production) of Liu Cixin's "The Three Body Problem."
Why is this on my thorium & nuclear power video index? For a show which initially presents itself as overtly anti-GMO and anti-nuclear... it has quite the plot twist where this opposition to tech is shown to be (literally) anti-human. I plan on referencing Three Body Problem in narrative works in 2024.

Mark Nelson debates nuclear power with Dr. Paul Dorfman on Al Jazeera.
► Oak Ridge National Lab's Molten-Salt Reactor Workshop 2023 videos are not yet shared by ORNL. I have created a YouTube playlist with some of the 2023 presentations I was able to capture.
You'll see I'm using Magic Mask on some of these talks. This was/is me training on how to use the tool. Magic Mask is a feature of Black Magic's DaVinci Resolve Studio video ediitng software. After this practice I later used Magic Mask on Kirk's University of Tennessee LFTR talk.
► This was my 3rd year hosting a pro-nuclear table during Calgary's "Marda Gras" street festival. (And the 2nd year with Jessica.) This video is not for general consumption... if you want to experience what hosting a pro-nuclear table is like, and what sort of questions one might get asked, then please check it out and hopefully you'll consider trying this yourself. (Or join us if you live in Calgary!)
I registered to participate as a volunteer for Canadians For Nuclear Energy. Stand-Up For Nuclear Power also helped me coordinate with the co-host, Jessica. Coordinating with any pro-nuclear organization can help you find people living around you to help out.
This is a community street festival, and I registered to participate as a volunteer for Canadians For Nuclear Energy. Stand-Up For Nuclear Power also helped me coordinate with the co-host, Jessica.
Gummy Bears were featured prominently at our table, because a gummy bear has the same volume as a nuclear fuel pellet, and so a "gummy bear" (of uranium) can displace the combustion of 1 ton of coal. We handed out little bags of gummy bears, which included a slip of paper explaining this fact.
We also sold T-SHIRTS (at cost). Each year the shirt experience was different:
2021 - Didn't know how to have inexpensive shirts printed. Sold shirts at-cost for $50 each. Sold very few.
2022 - Thought I could sell shirts virtually, by directing people to https://nuclear.myspreadshop.ca which resulted in a single shirt sale. The price was zero-profit-to-me, $30 each. So they were affordable, but no one at a street festival wanted to order off a website... people want to walk away with the shirts not wait a month for them to be shipped.
2023 - Successfully sold 14 shirts for $20 each (no-profit), out a stock of 16 split evenly among men's M, L, XL. (Only 2 medium were left over.) About 3 people asked for 2XL of which I had none. They were printed in Calgary at https://budgetpromotion.ca. Like most places, double-sided printing costs more, but Budget Promotion was still able to provide shirts at $20 /each. I expect the only way this worked was because they are in Calgary also, and I was able to drive to their warehouse to pick up the shirts myself. I would have printed 2x as many shirts (and presumably be left with extra inventory) except I missed the email from Budget Promotions when the told me the shirts were ready for pickup. So in 2023 many people asked for Thorium shirts but no one was able to buy any.
Aside from sharing our knowledge and opinions about nuclear power, we had about 20 different types of fliers. Ranging from United Nations ECE study of lifecycle impact of various energy sources, to vendor fliers, to SUFN pamphlets. (And the gummy bears count too, since they had an info slip included with each bag.)
If you're interested in hosting a nuclear table at a community festival feel free to contact C4NE or SUFN or myself to see if we can be of (non-financial) assistance.
For my community's table I paid out of my own pocket, as a fun thing I get to do once a year. Maybe one year I'll increase the cost of shirts to cover the cost of the table at the festival, but for now I'm trying to keep things as simple as possible.
The table cost $250 CAD, which is a non-profit price. Thanks to C4NE for allowing me to use their name when renting the table space.
I purchased a tent ("Outsunny 10' x 10' Pop Up Gazebo, Foldable Canopy Tent with Carrying Bag with Wheels, 4 Leg Weight Bags and 3-Level Adjustable Height for Outdoor Gard") for $180 from Amazon Canada. That's only been amortized over 2 years so far, but I expect it will last forever.
Gummy Bears were about $100 (Amazon in 2022, Costco in 2023).
Prepare the gummy bear bags in advance. It took me and my wife hours to put the info-slips and gummy bears into the tiny bags. Not something you can do while talking to people, and also would have looked kinda gross and not have been sanitary.
Contact vendors. Some vendors sent me fliers for free. Many provided PDFs that were not available on their websites.
Be ready to collect email addresses. I can now reach out to people and direct them to C4NE and SUFN. Also, I expect a lot of local activism on the nuclear-front in the coming years. We just set out a pen and paper and it turned out to be invaluable. (Although I couldn't decipher all emails, so in 2024 we'll let people type emails into a laptop.)

Spreadshirt is an on-demand shirt printing company with the lowest prices (I could find) for U.S.A. and Canada. All of these shirts are at cost to me... Spreadshirt makes a profit but I do not. These shirts are effective pro-nuclear communication. Do not buy a shirt to support my video work: buy a shirt if you want a shirt.

And that is DaVinci Resolve's Magic Mask finally applied to some decent quality video capture! Shame about the first 20 seconds of audio... those first 20 seconds are the inaudible made audible, thanks to a bunch of audio processing.
