This is largely due to the businesses and entrepreneurs who create jobs and to the women and men who get up each morning to go to the plant, or the office, or another place of work to make Ontario a more prosperous province. At the same time, the government has made strategic investments to support growth. Enhanced education, skills and training, new infrastructure, a competitive business environment and support for startups and small businesses are helping create good jobs. On the surface, the numbers tell a positive story: Our economy has outperformed those of all G7 nations since 2014; Our unemployment rate, at 5.5 per cent, is the lowest it has been in almost 20 years; and Last year alone, 500 net new jobs were created, on average, each day in Ontario, and they were mostly full‐time.

  • Repurposing Pickering Preliminary Assessment Report
    Repurposing Pickering Exploring the possibilities for new uses and reuses on the Pickering Nuclear site December 11, 2015 This report is made available for information purposes only. The content of this report is based on available facts, the analysis undertaken and assumptions made (the "Content"), as of the date of this report (11/12/2015). The Content may change, subsequent to the date of this report, and these changes may have an impact on the assessment results. Please note that OPG may or may not choose to either update this report or post an updated report. OPG cannot guarantee the completeness, accuracy, or reliability of this report or its usefulness for any purpose. OPG will not be liable for any loss, damage cost or expense arising or incurred as a result of any person's use or reliance on this report. 2 Executive Summary As part of planning for the end of commercial operations of the Pickering Nuclear Generating Station, Ontario Power Generation (OPG) is undertaking a study to explore future uses of the Pickering site. The reason for this is to ensure that the site will continue to be put to productive uses that benefit Ontarians during and after the decommissioning of the Pickering station. Given the transmission (hydro) corridor and other valuable infrastructure that already are in place, through Repurposing Pickering, OPG aims to identify and implement land uses that take advantage of existing assets – without interfering with decommissioning and without preventing the site’s long-term potential from being realized. As a starting point for Repurposing Pickering, the purpose of this first comprehensive study is to explore future possibilities broadly – and then narrow down and recommend a manageable number of land use options for further study.
