RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: New info. I think the NDP will be the death knell for the industry in BC because of their reputation (which is putrid) and the idea that people are kind of wishy washy about junior companies as a whole at the moment anyway and their addition to the "should I invest or not" equation will tip the balance in many cases. I've seen them come through various jurisdictions and their arrival is always associated with a drop in mineral exploration. Money is so fluid and there are so many other choices out there as far as where it can go that people have no need to take on the added risk. The only hope is that they cannot do much to the industry as they need the wealth, taxes and jobs that come from it given the budget situation in BC. But I think that is a faint hope as their reputation is known and remembered by the investing public and people will simply walk away until they are gone.
