Ottawa has just announced a few minutes ago that the proposed Prosperity Mine will not go forward, due to environmental concerns but Ottawa has now approved the Mount Milligan mine near Prince George to move forward

I am disappointed that Ottawa caved in to environmentalists on Prosperity Mine. It will be interesting to see how the community of Williams Lake & Area responds to this decision
