BC Mining Sector Questions Clark Government on Morrison Proposal

The Globe and Mail reported that the mining sector questions Premier Christy Clark’s government on its refusal to grant an Environmental Assessment Certificate for the Morrison copper and gold mine.

As quoted in the market report:

The mining sector is fuming about a decision by the Clark government to kill the proposed Morrison copper and gold mine. In a speech last week, the head of the Mining Association of Canada raked the Liberals over the coals: “How did the government come to the conclusion that the risks outweighed the benefits? Frankly, we don’t know. What we do know is this uncertainty is not good for investment.”

Even as the corporate community vents about the Clark government, business leaders are making an effort to blur the lines that defined election campaigns past.
