News from the foggy boonies.

Somebody has been a naughty boy then. Seems this company has been denied any more permits to work inside Nunatsiavut Lands by the NG. In press release and radio interviews officials from NG said that this company had carried out exploration work before submitting work plans to NG. This is a no no and NG wants to send a stern message to all companies.
It’s not known to me why NG would not name the company, CBC had no qualms about outing the alleged company, no one from the company has responded to date.
Note: CBC has nothing up on site yet, could be later, depends on how much news on Newfoundland they can fit in.

Most of the credit for exposing these indiscretions should go to Terry Rice from Makkovik, he was doing due diligence in keeping track of what is going on in that region vis a vis uranium exploration.

On the nomination for party candidate’s front; two are nominated for the Labrador Party, Jimmy Tuttauk and Lucy Jararuse.
For the PC, seems Patti Pottle is committed with one other maybe. Nominations close at noon today for the Pc’s as well as for the Labrador Party.

See all the news here.

Fogged in at moment, more rain later today and heavier this evening in forecast.
