Na-Cho Nyk Dun has 'moral opposition' to arms manufacturing

Fireweed's project proposal was filed to the Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Board on Monday, Dec. 9 — four days before Friday's announcement. 

A spokesperson for the First Nation said all it knows about the project so far is what is in the news release.

Adrienne Hill is manager of implementation and governance with Na-cho Nyk Dun (NND). 

"NND has moral opposition to weapons production," said Hill. "The link between this mine and missile production raises ethical questions about supporting industries tied to conflict and violence."

Yawn. Jobs for 50 years or moral high ground. You pick the winner.

Seriously. I personally feel if I found minerals in my backyard that would be used to manufacture weapons and I was offered a 2 billion for them and all of my friends and neighbours could be employed for life I'd choose the money and weapons 100% of the time. Hell I'd personally sign the side of every missle.

Something tells me you wouldn't be quite so morally bankrupt if the first missile was pointed at your back yard

[Massivesulfide]

With all due respect, Nellliecat, I have known MIK for over 20 years and I could not completely disagree with you more.:)

[MassiveisKing]

To be fair, when Cantex comes in I'll be even more morally bankrupt than I currently am today. 

[Stallion13]

Yea what is this comment? The weapons are already pointed at our backyard. The minerals in question would be so our allies would have something to point back or are you a pacifist?
