Advocacy

Our voice is your voice!

OCNI engages in a number of advocacy efforts in conjunction with our supply chain members, and other respected voices in the industry to ensure that we have a strong, cohesive voice in the development of clear nuclear policy and also in critical business/economic development here in Canada.

OCNI contributes to existing programs through CNA, ONA and also leads through our direct advocacy and education programs with all levels of elected officials.
