Hornepayne, ON: the location of deep geological repository for Canada's spent nuclear fuel?

Hornepayne, ON: the location of deep geological repository for Canada's spent nuclear fuel? http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/story/2012/10/16/pol-nuclear-waste-site-hornepayne.html "So what are those benefits? For one, the project will cost anywhere from $16 billion to $24 billion. It will take 10 years to build the repository and that will mean 800 construction jobs. There will be spin-offs from that: cafes, groceries, maybe even a McDonald's, hopes Forster.
"Schools will be built. Houses will be built. Not an endless supply of things, but everything would be increased," says Forster.
Once the repository is in place, he says, there will be the people who manage and operate the facility: PhDs.
Forster could imagine a theatre troupe setting up shop in Hornepayne because of them."
