Although I can't find my source, about a year ago I was told that a CANDU in Fort Mac would be between 9 - 11 billion*. But for residential rates, it would output over 1.2 billion worth of juice if it was generating alone, and higher returns expected from previously discussed advantages.
Darlington, in Ontario, should be considered. It was a 15 billion dollar snafu 15 years ago. But further considering the project management skills currently in the area and the dollars involved, I think it would come in on budget.
*which is a high number because of the Ft.Mac Factor. The same CANDU, built near Calgary would cost 7-9 billion.
