#The creation of economic zones may be good for industry to create jobs employment etc. However, there was no consultation with indigenous nations, we are sitting on unceded territory and is in one of the hot spot gold mines and potential new PGM mine. The Ontario Government has been negligent in fair negotiation to the Biigtigong land claim, and now want to create economic zones for industry without consulting with us. Any future economic opportunities of ANY Kind including all resource extraction must be in partnership with the First Nations in the area.
