I noticed this comment by Long Lake #58 First nation in the 2014 open house presentation:
notice :the words when describing the rof..."It’s far from where anyone lives".
My sentiments exactly...
And the reasons for the years of protesting by some???

Long Lake #58 First Nation
• Is there any information being provided in regards to spin offs, private businesses?
• I would like to know the progress of every other (in surrounding area) Mine ‘Premier’ has dug
& later restored back to its natural state. Going back 40 years would suffice. I want to know if
those places have successfully been ‘restored’. My motive is that my children’s children’s
children will continue to live here & I want to be sure that they won’t be exposed to water &
land that’ll surely kill them or force them to leave. Why re-open the Geraldton Goldmines
when there is much to be had far, far up north within ‘The Ring of Fire’? "It’s far from where anyone lives" and its got enough raw ore, gold, etc… to go around for a very, very long time.
I will keep track of the progress of this ‘Hardrock’ Mine and if there’s any illegal activity like
dumping contaminated water, via fracking or ‘accidental’ spills, you can be sure that we will
do our best to have you investigated & brought to justice.
• No
• Keep up the great job. Hopefully jobs will start soon to get.
• Do I get a percentage?
