I am in full support of the Flag Resources (1985) Limited mineral exploration permit in Mackelcan Township. It is important that this permit is granted without any delays or any unreasonable terms or conditions.

Prospecting and exploration must be allowed to continue on existing mining claims and leases in Forest Reserves, provided the obligations of the Mining Act are met. Mineral prospecting is vital to this Nation's economy and it's ability to competitively develop cleaner resources, while supplying much needed jobs in the near-north.
