Reducing and preventing the health effects related to low dose radiation exposure is both a challenge and global priority. Today, we’re proud to share that we’ve partnered with uOttawa to advance low dose research.
The new partnership leverages our organizations’ complementary capabilities, a new CNL satellite laboratory within uOttawa’s new Advanced Medical Research Centre, shared access of facilities and education and training opportunities to students and early career researchers.

On May 14, CNL and Hydro-Québec co-hosted a successful public information session at the Centre culturel Larochelle in Saint-Grégoire, focused on the decommissioning of the Gentilly-1 and Gentilly-2 nuclear facilities.
Over the course of the afternoon and evening, nearly 50 members of the public attended to learn more about the projects and engage directly with representatives from CNL, Hydro-Québec, the NWMO, and the CNSC. Public feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing appreciation for the open dialogue and accessible location. The event also attracted strong media interest!
CNL teams from Corporate Communications, Indigenous Engagement, and D&ER Program Integration played key roles behind the scenes and on-site—bringing visuals, innovation, and energy to life. From VR experiences to a robotic demo dog, attendees saw firsthand the innovation behind our work.
A big thank you to everyone who contributed to this milestone event, and to the community members who took the time to attend. This was a proud moment of collaboration, engagement, and transparency.
