I am a little late with this comment on Dan Martins post where he made available the Northern Minor article on Noront but it is still relevant. The key aspect of this article was that the press actually interviewed Joe Hamilton fairly indepth. He candidly discussed Noront in terms of winter roads, permanent roads, power lines and infrastructure. It wasn,t a PR but it was a public communication that conversed with readers unlike a press release that is formal and has legal ramifications . I thought it was a significant article that showed the BOD at least were doing their homework even though we are kept in the dark so to speak.

Another key message was the talk about the road developement as a government initiative for a depressed area. Members of this board who took the initiatve and called their MPs and the posting here about the urgency of government involvement was extremely timely and proactive. Reading the article, I almost could believe that Joe was giving encouragement for your actions. Good work folks and something may come out of that with the stimulus activities
