What an opportune time in Canadian History.
(1) ROF is 4x the size of the Sudbury Basin.
It has, chromium, nickel, copper, gold, platinum, palladium, silver, kimberlites, titanium, rhodium, vanadium etc etc etc etc.

Canada is considered a world leader in hydrogen and fuel cell technologies.
Canada produces a lot of waste hydrogen. It can be utilized for ie: operating a train!
A hydrogen fuel cell powered locomotive.
(3) Google the components needed to build fuel cells and you will clearly see we've got those components ...here.
Here..in Canada in James Bay Lowlands...in the Ring of Fire.
(4) We need a rail. How about hydrogen power trains? Hydrogen can be made and it is also a by- product of some industries. Hydrogen can't be moved by pipeline like natural gas. It's transported by train. Train? Yes Train. So you pick up the by-product by train and use the byproduct to power your train.
(4) How about bombardier..Thunder Bay? Every day, around the globe, Bombardier manufactures state-of-the-art planes and trains that help people and goods get where they need to go.
Isn't Thunder Bay hurting for jobs? For solid opportunties? Isn't Michael Gravelle trying very hard to get the ROF refineries there? For Jobs? How about someone like Bombardier builds these trains for use in the ROF, other parts of Canada and for export?

(6)China plans to finish construction of 13,000 km of high speed railway lines using the latest technology by 2012. This build out is greater than the length of all high speed lines currently in existence. 200–250 km/h high-speed rail under construction.
(7) Have we learned something from the USA?
(8) What do we do?
(9) How about this?
borrow money from the chinese for funding infrastructure needs in the ROF. In return they get interest on their money from a financially stable country. As a perk how about a discount on the trains we will build here using our own materials found in the ROF! Not only do we build trains for export but also for our own needs for our own country! Hydrogen powered trains in the ROF and throughout Canada built by materials found in Canada(ROF) and powered by hydrogen. Hydrogen made here and also found in by-product of industry in Canada.
(1) What a thought. Not only do we have the Ring of Fire in Canada but we can think of this opportunity as a complete business RING. A RING that if brought full circle would provide incredible opportunities for generations.
(10) Jobs, hope and independence.
