Ought to be a major victory for BC FN in the Cariboo region near Fish Lake. For the 2nd time now the Feds EAA has rejected Tasekos New Prosperity massive open pit copper-gold mine project. Quote: Counc. Marilyn Baptiste, secretary-treasurer of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs, said, “We are victorious!” in a statement issued late Thursday night after the report was released. “The panel listened to us and formally determined the project would ‘adversely affect’ the title and rights for the Tsilhqot’in and Secwepemc. What a win for us,” she said. CEO for Vancouver based Taseko Resources Inc., Brian Battison insists even with this decision this project should still go ahead, however ultimate final approval or disapproval rests with Feds Min of Environment. westcoastnativenews/first-nations-declare-victory-against-tasekos-b-c-mine/
