RE: RE: RE: Time for a Change

RE: RE: RE: Time for a ChangeI think there are methods that have worked for companies - for example; one such company - Corriente Resources (CTQ) - had their copper project stopped in 2006 (in Ecuador)  as a result of NGOs and poor community relations.
To deal with the issue CTQ  brought in some indigenous and community experts who worked hand in hand with the indigenous and latin communities.
As a result of their efforts - CTQ got their project moving forward - the share price increased from $ 2.50 a share to $ 6.00 and then soon after CTQ was sold to a Chinese company for $ 8.60 a share.   
I guess this is what happens when you hire a firm who understand Indigenous and First Nations people - it would be nice to see our SP at $ 8.60 a share...
Maybe TKO mgt should contact the former mgt of CTQ and see how they did it and get the name of the company who helped them out...
I have also heard the PDAC has an Aboriginal unit maybe they can recommend someone or a First Nations company that can work with the communities and help us to advance Prosperity...
