On October 8-9, 2017,
I took part in a rally calling for “No Nukes in Hokkaido,” which was held in
Odori street, Sapporo.
Under a clear
autumn sky, participants numbered 2,200 (according to the organizers).
In the rally, ONO
Yugo, a professor emeritus at Hokkaido University, reported on the current
situation of the controversial Tomari Nuclear Power Station. Referring to the
fact that the Nuclear Regulation Authority of Japan (NRC) has finally
acknowledged that the faults found near
the nuclear plant could be active, the professor explained the development of
the issue. ”Now that the NRC has turned down the argument by Hokkaido Electric
Power Co. Ltd, that is, that the fault in question is not active, I firmly
believe the nuclear plant will never be restarted.”
NISHIO Masamichi, Honorary Director of
Hokkaido Cancer Center joined in the criticism, saying the “Party of Hope (led
by Tokyo Gov. Koike) is a Party of Despair. It is, after all, a Koike faction
in the ruling Liberal Democratic Party.”
ASADA Shinji, Chief Director of Hokkaido Consumers’
Cooperative, provided covering fire. “I denounce the Act on the Protection of
Specially Designated Secrets, the Security Acts, and the Conspiracy Act, and I call for the abolition of the Major Crops Seed
Law, which can threaten our food safety but has received little attention from the public. Prime
Minister Abe calls for military provocation against North Korea, and he is
holding a snap election in the name of dispelling the national crisis. But the
truth is that the national crisis was created by Prime Minister Abe himself.” (Kurogane Ko)
厳しい改憲勢力批判「希望は絶望の党、国難は安倍」～10.9 さようなら原発北海道集会
10月9日、札幌・大通公園で行われた「さようなら原発北海道集会」に参加した。さわやかな秋晴れの空の下、2200人（主催者発表）が集まった。小野有五・北海道大名誉教授は、北海道電力泊原発沖合にある断層について、原子力規制委員会が「活断層」とする考え方を支持している現状とこれまでの推移を報告。「規制委が初めて（断層が活断層でないとする）北電の主張を退けた。もう泊原発は動かないと思っている」と、再稼働阻止への自信を見せた。西尾正道・北海道がんセンター名誉院長は「希望の党は絶望の党であり、自民党小池派に過ぎない」と批判。麻田信二・北海道生活協同組合理事からも、厳しい安倍政権批判が飛び出した。「秘密保護法、違憲の安保法制、共謀罪。そしてあまり注目されていないが食の安全を脅かす種子法廃止。北朝鮮への軍事挑発。安倍首相は国難突破解散と言うが、国難を作り出しているのは安倍首相本人だ」と。（黒鉄好）
