RE: NDP pledge Spoken like a true politician:
"In an interview with the Echo, he said he was not coming out either for or against coal mining projects like Raven.
"What I am against is approving any mine application without a proper review being done," he insisted. "There is still time to conduct one - the minister for the environment could call for one this afternoon."
An independent joint review panel, which would include scientists and other experts, would ensure a stronger process that would give the public much more confidence in the outcome, he said."
So, why don't voters come out and tell Fleming, "If you don't stop Raven we will not vote NDP?"
Not that it will make a difference IMO as I believe most politicians flip-flop all the time in order to suit their agenda.
What I got from reading that article is that Fleming is willing to spend $$ Millions on duplicating the research already done by Compliance. Taxpayer money well spent, I think not, lol.
