Current proposals for nuclear expansion in Saskatchewan include nuclear reactors, uranium refining, conversion, enrichment, reprocessing, new uranium mines and high level nuclear waste storage.  Much of the information about these expansion plans comes from the nuclear industry, specifically Bruce Power, Cameco and Areva.  Saskatchewan citizens must examine these proposals carefully and critically by seeking out independent, non-industry sources.  The organizations below employ the expertise of physicists, engineers, doctors, biologists, lawyers, economists and policy makers:
