Tofino - open pit copper mine?

Apparently Imperial Metals are hoping to turn an abandoned gold mine into an open pit copper mine. This in a UNESCO biosphere - and on Indian land. They are responsible for the worst mining disaster in Canada and have yet to pay a cent in fines or cleanup costs.

The following link is to a signup sheet to protest this action.

Signed and posted on Facebook also. That's such a pretty area. I'd hate to see it potentially ruined by mining.

Posted our concern some days ago -- yes we must stop this mine. But Murray Edwards -CEO has poured many $ into Premier Clark's run for office-- this means Imperial Metals has a leg up here.
