A buddy of mine is involved in this project.

The Darlington Nuclear Generating Station is Ontario Power Generation's newest CANDU (CANadian Deuterium Uranium) nuclear generating station. It is a 4-unit station with a total output of 3,512 megawatts (MW) and is located in the Municipality of Clarington in Durham Region, 70 km east of Toronto. It provides about 20 per cent of Ontario's electricity needs, enough to serve a city of two million people.

The New Nuclear at Darlington Project involves the construction and operation of up to four nuclear power reactors and up to 4,800 MW of electrical capacity and associated facilities, at OPG’s existing Darlington Nuclear site, to meet the base load energy needs of Ontario.
Giving us a total capacity of 8,312MW at this facility.
Bruce, which is located in Kincardine Ontario, currently is our biggest Nuclear plant (the refurbishment of which my buddy was also involved in) and supplies Ontario with roughly 30% of its total power.
The wiki on it states:

The Bruce station is the largest nuclear facility in the world (the Kashiwazaki-Kariwa in Japan is larger but is only operating at 48% of capacity due to earthquake damage and decommissioning),[3][4] comprising 8 CANDU nuclear reactors having a total output of 6,272 MW and 7,276 MW (net) when all units are online. The Bruce station has two 500 kV transmission lines going out of it to feed the major load centres in southern Ontario, in addition to three 230 kV lines serving the local area.
The upgrades to Darlington will make it higher output than Bruce and the Japanese plant (which has an installed capacity of 7,965 MW), effectively making it the most powerful Nuclear power site in the world
