#Mining companies taking resources from #SubArctic and #Arctic regions in #Canada are #corporateWelfare bums who don't pay their bills, expect public bailouts and leave #toxic messes behind. When will #nwtpoli and #cdnpoli finally stop these abuses? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/north/ekati-diamond-mine-files-creditor-protection-9.7186245

Ekati mine's future in doubt as company files for creditor protection | CBC News

Ekati Diamond Mine’s parent company has filed for creditor protection. It says global events caused the gem’s prices to fall by more than 70 per cent within a year. The filings put at risk hundreds of jobs and millions of dollars in promised payments to Indigenous communities.

#Yellowknife's recent 4 hour power outage at -25C was initially blamed on #ravens (as power outages tend to be in the #subArctic). But this time it wasn't the fault of this smart #corvid.

In #Yellowknife #NWT #Canada, people, animals, land and water have to live with the toxic Giant Mine and perpetually care for 230,000 tonnes of toxic arsenic trioxide. This project asks for people to join us in witnessing this monster's life.
