RE:I will still bet that the Nisga'a will lose. I agree. The Nisga are using this simply as a leveraging tool. It has been proven that the trailing ponds will not effect natural fishing breeding grounds at all. In fact, the only fish impacted are rainbow trout, which were stocked anyways. Dollyvarden and salmon which come under the original treaty are not effected at all. In addition, Avanti has given much in regards to job training and building a. self-sufficient infrastructure. Granted, there have been mining projects in which local people have been screwed in the past. But this clearly is not one of them. For the sake of everyone in the area,
for God's sake, let the mine go though, and let's overcome our petty differences.
