Some actual positive news which we all need!

At a technical briefing Thursday, Streicker told reporters that testing of samples from Haggart Creek last week 2 kilometres downstream from the site detected no cyanide, but officials say people should not consume water or fish from the creek even though risk to human health is "very low."..." Benton Foster, Yukon's director of community health programs, says the recommendation to avoid drinking water or eating fish from the creek is out of "an abundance of caution."
If this is actually correct; imho this is amazing! Contamination of vast amounts of drinking water near Mayo, Yukon would have been unacceptable on every level. Victoria Gold should be able to get this under control and can't ever repeat this type of disaster!!!
