Federal leaders clash on nuclear energy, pipelines during French debate.

Pierre Poilievre and Mark Carney agree on a possible east-west pipeline and nuclear energy corridor.

Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet opposed pipelines, saying Quebecers did not benefit from a national corridor.

“We have uranium,” he said. “We have big nuclear energy companies like Candu and Westinghouse and Cameco , and the technology. So absolutely, yes.” Poilievre blamed bureaucracy for slowing down construction of nuclear power plants without adding to its safety. “I will fire politicians’ in the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission and permit scientists to do their job so we can add nuclear power source,” the Conservative leader said. Both Blanchet and Singh said they were not in favor of expanding nuclear energy. With files from The Canadian Press .
