Fani, I would have to agree with you that we seem to be moving at the pace of a snail. The one bright spot is that we do have some ownership in CHM, however small. I suspect that following the upcoming provincial election that we will see announcements that will favour our northern regions as well as the peoples of the north. Ontario has been blessed with so many natural resources and the Ring of Fire appears to be another big mining camp that may in future be in the magnitude of Sudbury. Since jobs are in such need the opening up of our undervalued north is the way of the future. Ontarians should also wake up to the fact that we can be other than just raw material suppliers. We need to become the producers of items from these raw materials. We should be the suppliers of the raw materials , the middlemen and the retailers of products, which is where real wealth and job creation can be found. Seems like we have always just been, for the most part, suppliers and not builders. I do believe by spring the Ring of Fire will be on fire. I hope the readers on this forum get out and vote this Oct 6th for the party that you feel will best advance the opening up of our north.
