Mine Your Own Business

The Government of Canada is designating 16 lakes across the country to be tailing ponds for mining operations. These lakes will be poisoned forever but it makes perfect sense to the government and corporations such as Vale Inco and Imperial Metals. According to the law invoked the lakes will become "tailings impoundment areas."

According to Elizabeth Gardiner, vice-president for technical affairs for the Mining Association of Canada: “In some cases, particularly in Canada, with this kind of topography and this number of natural lakes and depressions and ponds … in the end it's really the safest option for human health and for the environment."

Further evidence of the insanity of civilized humans.
