Energy Probe
Energy Probe is a non-governmental environmental policy organization based in Toronto and best known for its role in opposing nuclear power.
It was founded in 1970 as a sister project of Pollution Probe and incorporated in 1980 as Energy Probe Research Foundation (EPRF), which describes itself as "one of Canada's largest independent think tanks, with 17 public policy researchers". It focuses on the economic, environmental and social impacts of the use and production of energy. Financial Post columnist Lawrence Solomon was one of the co-founders of EPRF in 1980. University of Toronto Professor Clifford Orwin was noted as being on the foundation's board in 2005, where he was joined by columnists Margaret Wente and Andrew Coyne.
