This is illustrated by the challenges faced at the Three Mile Island Unit 2 accident in 1979 and the continuing challenges following accidents at the Windscale Pile in 1957, Chornobyl nuclear power plant in 1986 and the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station in 2011 (see Appendices I–IV). Large volumes of radioactive waste can also be generated by accidents at military installations or by mishandling high-activity sealed radiation sources (see Appendix V). The need to manage equivalent, large volumes of wastes from the cleanup of some legacy nuclear sites can also provide valuable experience for handling accident wastes (see Appendix VI). Implementing safe, cost effective management of waste from a major nuclear accident has proven to be a complex, resource intensive undertaking. Substantial challenges can also arise in the case of smaller accidents. Decisions need to be made on the designs and technologies to be employed to treat and dispose of a diverse mix of waste constituents, and on the selection of sites to be used for predisposal waste management and for the disposal facilities themselves. In the case of a major accident, radioactive waste volumes can quickly overwhelm existing national management and disposal infrastructure. Appropriate disposal facilities might not be available to match the amounts or characteristics of the wastes. Under such circumstances, inappropriate response actions taken in the early aftermath of an accident can limit the range of future management and disposal options, substantially increase costs and result in significant worker exposures and increased risk of public exposures. It will help to avoid such situations if precautionary accident response preplanning has been undertaken, even where the likelihood of serious accidents is considered to be extremely low. Exercises involving potential accident scenario identification and analysis, linked to response planning carried out at both national and facility level, are recommended. Such exercises can increase the likelihood that the processes used and decisions made in the event of an accident will be effective and broadly understood and accepted. Expanded knowledge from addressing wastes resulting from the Chornobyl and Fukushima Daiichi accidents, as well as experience with legacy nuclear fuel cycle and nuclear weapons facilities, non-nuclear accidents and radiological incident waste estimation tools offer valuable lessons for proactive, preplanning and strategy development. The potential for serious events at small facilities with radiologically significant material inventories has been demonstrated by historical events such as the SL-1 and Fermi 1 reactor events in the USA Both these events involved core damage and extensive generation of radioactive waste. Substantial experience has also been gained in many Member States in managing significant legacy radioactive waste in a suitably protective, cost effective manner using different approaches (see Appendix VI). This has led to improved operational approaches and provided experience in applying exemption and clearance principles. Although the nature and scale of any future nuclear accident that results in contamination of the environment are not predictable, a number of aspects can be anticipated and incorporated into advance planning and preparation, improving response and recovery capability. Given the diverse nature of wastes produced by major accidents, a graded approach to their management is recommended based on the potential characteristics of the waste involved. In the case of major accidents, multiple waste management facilities employing different designs can provide versatile options while controlling costs, without compromising safety or environmental protection standards. Waste management challenges depend on the scope and severity of an accident, as well as on the stage of the incident. The early emergency response stages may pose particular challenges when decisions need to be made quickly, limited personnel and facility availability, and when the priority of the moment will be focused on controlling the emergency itself. Challenges can result from the collection and storage of small amounts of wastes in containers without special treatment; the need to create full scale conditioning systems to capture and stabilize radionuclides and damaged fuel; the requirement to manage a wide range of wastes; working in harsh physical and radiological conditions; etc. Choosing and/or creating a waste management system is dependent upon many factors, such as the amount of waste and its geographical distribution, levels of contamination, physical and chemical properties, techniques and resources available, and storage and disposal requirements and capabilities. Waste management can be a constraint to remediation if appropriate waste management facilities, logistics, and staff support are not available in a timely manner. Integration of the remediation programme and the waste management programme is important. Through robust preparedness planning, Member States can minimize the amount of waste requiring disposal, provide for separation of wastes by type and radioactivity level, process or otherwise prepare stored waste for disposal and then dispose of it, all in a safe, efficient and cost effective manner. Achievement of these interrelated objectives is always conducted in a manner that is protective of workers, the general public and the environment in accordance with accepted standards. The experiences from past major accidents that are summarized in this report are intended to support such preparedness planning. The IAEA officers responsible for this publication were G.H. Nieder-Westermann and F.N. Dragolici of the Division of Nuclear Fuel Cycle and Waste Technology.

  • IN the MOUNTIES WE TRUST: a Study of Royal Canadian Mounted
    IN THE MOUNTIES WE TRUST: A Study of Royal Canadian Mounted Police Accountability by STEPHEN LORENZ WETTLAUFER A thesis submitted to the Department of Sociology in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada July, 2011 Copyright © Stephen Lorenz Wettlaufer, 2011 Abstract Police and Canadian citizens often clash during protests sometimes resulting in violent outcomes. Due to the nature of those altercations, there are few other events that require oversight more than the way police clash with protesters and there is a history of such oversight resulting in a number of Federal Parliamentary documents, Parliamentary Committee reports Task Force reports, reports arising from Public Interest Hearings of the Commission for Complaints Against the RCMP, and testimony at various hearings and inquiries which have produced particular argumentative discourses. Argumentative discourses that have a great effect on the construction of a civilian oversight agency of the RCMP is the focus of this thesis. This thesis examines how it is that different discourses, as represented by argumentative themes in these reports, intersect with one another in the process of creating a system of accountability for the RCMP. Through the lens of complaints that arise from protest and police clashes one may conclude that the current system of accountability does not adhere to a practice of protecting the most fundamental rights as prescribed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms; nor would the currently proposed legislation contained within Bill C‐38 alter the system in a substantial way to allow for such protections. The power dynamic between the Commissioner of the Force and the Commission for Complaints Against the RCMP favours the police force in the current and proposed system.

  • 312-11 Harper Years 2014
    The Harper Years Lecture 11: POL 312Y Canadian Foreign Policy Copyright: Professor John Kirton, University of Toronto All rights reserved November 25, 2014 JFK mk Introduction On January 23, 2006, Canadians elected Stephen Harper’s Conservatives with a minority government of 124 seats, compared to 103 for Paul Martin’s Liberals, 51 for the separatist Bloc Québécois, and 29 for the New Democratic Party (NDP). The 46-year-old Torontonian-turned-Albertan was formally sworn in as Canada’s 22nd prime minister on February 6. A debate immediately arose about what Canadian foreign policy would now be (Kirton 2006, 2007). After Harper won a second, stronger minority government of 143 seats on October 14, 2008 and then a majority government of 166 seats on May 8, 2011, the debate continued, among six major competing schools of thought. The Debate The first school pointed, in authentic peripheral dependent (PD) fashion, to “restrained Americanism.” It predicted that Harper would seek a cooperative relationship with the U.S., limited only by Harper’s fragile minority position and absence of ideological partners in Parliament. Janice Stein forecast “greater affinity with U.S. positions internationally,” including a pro-American tilt on relations with the Middle East and the United Nations (McCarthy 2006). Joseph Jockel, Christopher Sands, David Biette, and Dwight Mason thought the tone and ease of the Canada-U.S. relationship would improve, as Harper made good on his defence promises. But they also felt that the Shamrock Summit–like closeness of Brian Mulroney and Ronald Reagan would be avoided, given Harper’s minority position at home (Koring 2006).

  • G7 Charlevoix Progress Report – Women's Economic Empowerment
    G7 CHARLEVOIX PROGRESS REPORT Women’s Economic Empowerment as a Driver for Innovation, Shared Prosperity and Sustainable Development G7 Accountability Working Group (AWG) Accountability and transparency are core G7 principles that help maintain the credibility of G7 Leaders’ decisions. At the Summit in 2007 in Heiligendamm, Germany, G8 members introduced the idea of building a system of accountability. In 2009, the Italian Presidency formally launched this mechanism in L’Aquila and approved the first, preliminary Accountability Report and the Terms of Reference for the G7 Accountability Working Group (AWG). Since the first comprehensive report was issued at Muskoka in 2010, the AWG has produced a comprehensive report reviewing progress on all G7 commitments every three years, along with sector-focused accountability reports in interim years. These reports monitor and assess the implementation of development and development-related commitments made at G7 Leaders’ Summits, using methodologies based on specific baselines, indicators, and data sources. The reports cover commitments from the previous six years and earlier commitments still considered to be relevant. The AWG draws on the knowledge of relevant sectoral experts and provides both qualitative and quantitative information. For 2018, the Canadian Presidency chose Women’s Economic Empowerment as the theme for the Charlevoix Progress Report. Cover page image: Empowerment of Women, Agents of Change/India.
