I thought Muskrat was supposed to help us shut down the Diesel plant. I'm appalled but not in the least bit surprised.

If only there was ways to build nuclear reactors quickly and ship them anywhere. Oh shit, we have options:

A nuclear reactor in a shipping container that gives them 3X more power than they need right now: https://www.imeche.org/news/news-article/canada-invests-16m-in-shipping-container-sized-nuclear-re

A nuclear reactor that comes IN a boat and is dragged on shore: https://newatlas.com/energy/seaborg-floating-nuclear-reactor-barge/

But, nah, let's make those storm worse. It's more profitable.
