Does Bruce drive a car?  Does Bruce have a house?  Does Bruce have appliances in his house?  Where does he think all these things come from?   Does he think they come from the store?  Humans have thrived because we   mine metals from the ground and transform the material to make our lives better.  Canada has one of the strictest environmental permitting processes in the world,  and Noront has committed to mining responsibly and doing as little damage by burying the waste.  We have a huge opportunity to create jobs and wealth for Ontario, let's not squander this.  This joker uses words like highway robbery and pillaging.  Who pays for the winter roads?  who pays for water and fuel to be flown in?  Tax payers that is who.  if the Mattawa first nations do not want to share in the wealth of the land in an environmentally responsible way, then we should cut them off from any funding and let them live off the land by themselves with no more assistance.
