As background, I re-posted my Nov 7/12 AGO conversation I had with Paul Semple, including pts. 1, 3 (partial) repeated below:
"1. Re: McG proroquing effect on Permitting and NOT's FS mine start in 2016. Prorogueing (sp?) means to NOT: a) no ON spending if $ not budgeted and b) Minister will not sign off on a permit untill all beaurocrats have signed off."
"-all beaurocrats are "working on the permits now" and jan 25/13 is the bureauocrat signoff target, therefore the permitting is still on schedule for ministerial sign off in "late spring, 2013" when new ON government will have been elected."
"3. How does NOT/RoF get on radar screen of politicians? "Politicking will begin shortly". ..."
Observations/comments:
Oct 19/12 Tom Anselmi appointed to BoD: great credentials {civil engineer; large successful contruction project build track record;excellent community relations rep/brand build rep/markateer etc;long term projects to completion; etc etc}. No job description/area of BoD role was ever announced for Tom. I think I know.
Dec.19/12 RB Milestone Grp hired for 6 mo contract to provide access to their extensive Corporate world rolodex (USA; NA;World) to provide PR/promo/trade show to the targeted Corporate/Financial/Mining investment world on global basis.
Jan 4/13 Pathway Grp hired to access Ont and Federal Canadian governments to promote Noront specific plans and goals wrt NOT and broader RoF initiatives.
WRT the impending Ontario Jan 25/13 permit sgnoff target ref above, and other indicators, I cannot help but think these plans and announcements represent a concerted action plan to win all necessary permits; secure ON and Fed backing (Env and infastructure funding); FN resolutions-via bill C-45 (as ammended) passes; corporate financing via early BOA June/13 warrant exercuising; SCF additional ?? .
Sure looks like the "under the radar" is off and that this is superb timing to influence the various ON lib leadership candidates, not to mention all parties in the coming ON election; the Fed FN C45 marketing to Canadians;proct mine build financing and jobs announcements.
If the sp continues to creep up, maybe there's a leak in the radar?
