I've been watching this forum for going on 8 years now, ever since I was doing some minor subcontract work for a company that was doing some consulting for Noront.  Wanted to know if I should invest.  I've watched the stock go up a bit, down a bit, but not really change during that time.  All I've seen is the usual junior mining company spin on every setback: blame the government, blame commodity prices, say they are THIS close to starting, meanwhile nothing happens.  I see posters on here complain over and over that the government isn't doing anything.  And that is one of the main reasons I still haven't bothered investing in this junior.  Why should taxpayers expect that half a billion or so of their dollars be spent helping to build infrastructure for a private company that still doesn't have enough capital to build this mine, even if it wasn't in the middle of the James Bay lowlands?  Started out with this concept of a totally underground mine & mill, a "perfect world" dream.  I still don't see anyone working for Noront other than maybe Steve Flewelling who can push this plan forward, just a bunch of exploration geologists and accountants.  They've been stuck on this plan of the Eagles Nest since day one, no vision of exploiting their supposed stock of other deposits and making this a truly game-changing mining camp.  Until they do this, cough up their own money for infrastructure like every other mine in Ontario, and show that they are actually committed to mining and not just supporting their Toronto lifestyle, then I'm sceptical of the whole thing.
