Is province backing away from Ring?

The word that KWG Resources along with Marten Falls First Nation reps are off to China to discuss a rail line to the Ring of FIre mineral deposits’ has been quickly followed by shocking news that Queens Park did not mention the Ring of Fire in last week’s budget or its long-time promise of $1 billion to support the Ring project. Why?
Is it that Queen’s Park can’t handle the notion of the Chinese doing business in Northern Ontario? Or is it that Queen’s Park has its own plan? Not likely given 10 years of nothing but empty blather despite tens of millions spent.
Is it because the feds have a plan? Even more unlikely.
Or it is because both Queen’s Park and the feds both fear political fallout from south of the border regarding direct Chinese communist enterprise at work in North American.
Thus if the Ring project is dead, score a win for Donald Trump and one huge loss for Northern Ontario.
