I don't agree with inviting another U.S. entity to get this enterprise moving.I thought that the general feeling was this will be made in Canada for Canadian's benefit.The recent easement application dismissal indicates this .Anyway I don't think Bill Gates would have the patience for it given the slow pace that is evident with the possible EA revisions,FN involvement,ONTC revival and ports authoity proposal,provincial and federal govt. input and delays not to mention NGOs meddling.This is referred to as a legacy project that will provide up to 100 years of industry to northern Ontario so all we can really do now is hurry up and wait.JMO.
