This paper traces the evolution of Quebec’s government nuclear strategy between 1963 and 2012. The analysis is divided into three main periods: the emergence of a nuclear program between 1963 and 1970, a moment of political opposition on its long term evolution between 1971 and 1976, and its progressive abandonment between 1977 and 1983. With the commissioning of the Gentilly-2 nuclear plant in 1983, and up to its shutdown in 2012, no other nuclear project would be undertaken in the province. From the analysis of these periods, we highlight the reasons that led the government of Quebec to develop a local nuclear industry. We discuss the technical, political and economic factors that allowed the development of a nuclear program in spite of the massive investments in hydroelectricity during the seventies. Finally, we determine the political reasons that led the government to abandon the nuclear option in 1977.
