Eric Chassard CEO, Bruce Power — Canadian at Our Core: Advancing  Nuclear Innovation For Canada's Bright Energy Future 

Canada is at a pivotal moment—one that will define its energy future, economic security, and prosperity for generations. As electricity demand accelerates and global competition intensifies, Ontario must build an energy system that is strong, resilient, and independent. With its largescale nuclear generation, world leading medical isotope production, and thousands of skilled workers, Bruce Power and Ontario’s nuclear sector stand at the centre of this opportunity. 

On April 8th, The Empire Club of Canada is proud to welcome Eric Chassard, President and CEO of Bruce Power, for a timely and forward-looking address entitled Canadian at Our Core: Advancing  Nuclear Innovation For Canada's Bright Energy Future  on the future of Ontario’s energy system and Canada’s role as a clean energy leader. 

 Eric will outline how the steps being taken today—from life extension and refurbishment to planning for future nuclear capacity—are laying the foundations for a bright energy future Ontarians can count on. Grounded in a “Canadian at our core” philosophy, he will speak to how the province can leverage its tools, talent, and innovation to become a clean energy superpower, powering industries, supporting families, and strengthening the economy.
