Too bad for the local economy, but I realize there were environmental concerns...

They have to show the greenies that they do care about the environment and that they hope it will take away some of the pressure of Pipelines........

Really is much safer than Gibralter mine which Is much closer to the Fraser rivet...one of the safest locations in the Cariboo...seriously made no sense not to approve it...I know guys working in the Yukon now with homes in WL...bad deal for everyone...
Not just for this mine..but for everyone who now realizes buissness is not welcome here...and DIA cheques wont come close to high paying jobs...forthose that want to work....

Bad times ahead locally

Seems like everyone in Williams Lake was for the mine and there is much disappointment.

Are all the other mines producing low yearly percentages now?

[Big G Hunter]

Between Tree Huggers and FN not a lot of big business will get done in Williams Lake. Mills are going tits up in the forseeable future with pine beetle problems so Prosperity was looking like a good alternative. Really to bad. Do they try again?

Too bad Taseko couldn't produce a plan that was acceptable to enviro review. I'm all for the mine if they can do it right, but it's Taseko's failure to bring forth a proper plan, not the government's failure to approve it.
