Back in Sept. 9...Moonias ...as usual...was complaining....

http://www.tbnewswatch.com/news/357422/First-Nations-leadership-complain-of-inadequate-Ring-of-Fire-consultation-from-province

"In his letter Moonias identified six specific concerns relating to the pending issuance of exploration permits to Noront and MacDonald Mines. In addition to consultation, those include actually receiving funding to engage in full consultation to understand and analyze the permits."

We now have the Matawa chiefs complaining about this:

"The chiefs said the province is moving forward on permitting companies which have not consulted with area First Nations..."

I have one question for the chiefs...why now?

http://www.ebr.gov.on.ca/ERS-WEB-External/displaynoticecontent.do?noticeId=MTE4OTEw&statusId=MTc4NTU0

The link above is clear. The exploration permit for Noront was approved APRIL 19, 2013!!!!! For a 3 year period!

Notice this on the link above

Comment(s) Received on the Proposal: 0

Public Consultation on the proposal for this decision was provided for 30 Days, from February 26, 2013 to March 28, 2013.

As a result of public consultation on the proposal, the Ministry received a total of 0 comments.

No comments were received resulting in no impact on the decision whether or not to proceed with this proposal

Chiefs...you had 30 DAYS from February 26 2013 TO March 28 2013..Hello...this was LAST YEAR.

No comments were recieved on the proposal....Why did you not complain then..about lack of ..what you call "consulation!@@!$"

"Chiefs ...you state.. you want the province to share all the permit applications submitted by mining companies operating within the Matawa traditional territory."

That statement is PURE CRAP.

There is a website ...learn to use it ...The gov't of Ontario is not going to build a "special Matawa territory site" for you...for petes sake.

If you wanted to view Noront's application permit it was available ...see link below. You had 30 days to bitch about lack of consultation...LAST YEAR>>> Where were you??

Hey...chiefs...

It's not that hard. Below you will find 20 pages of 198 notices. Start going through them and if you have an issue...you have 30 days to complain...just like everyone else.
