As I post this, nuclear is the largest contributor.

The Bruce Nuclear Generating Station is the largest in North America:

I believe they are looking at building a Bruce C to add even more capacity.

View on HN

Bruce C was scrapped 15 years ago.

There is extensive long term refurbishment of the existing reactors that includes uprated capacity, but there isn't currently any plans to add new reactors at Bruce.

A different Ontario nuclear site (Darlington) does have work underway to build four BWRX-300 reactors, one of which will be the first in the world.

Nope. We are planning Bruce C now.
