Hello Antiki,

I never meat Mr. Mulcair himself, I was however allocated one full hour with Mr. Carpenter his assistance…a very knowledgeable individual…. He said that it would have been impossible for Mr. Muclair to have presented my idea to the House of Commons. The following here was my idea---not very convincing I'm afraid.

In view of the fact that miners in Canada are excluded from Gov. subsidies, my intent was to explore for other avenues with which to argue for one, perhaps. So, while at Mr. Muclair's local office, among other things, my aim was of how to go about in convincing him to remind the top Gov. officials of their responsibility on the issue of the Arctic Sovereignty theme and while in the area why not expand a little downward towards Tahera.

So, if Tahera was to be dissolved; I felt (still do) it should have stayed partially or in whole with the local communities instead of potentially being swallowed by foreign giant Corps already on the scene or being disintegrated for that matter. Considering where Tahera was situated, and what this Corporation represented, I felt an exception could have been made where it would have entitled the Gov. of Nunavut to be the recipient of a Fed. grant with which to go on the hunt for diamonds deposits in the periphery of Jericho and to continue with the business of mining the Jericho project. The idea was (just my idea), Since Tahera had the complete mine infrastructure and was situated about on the Earth's most special location and a region rich in natural resources of an assortment of metal oars and precious stones of magnificence (conflict free) and the sort of things very much in demand, I sincerely felt that the Tahera enterprise was worth of Gov. support. More importantly, I felt a company of this nature with a mine already in operation should have been nurtured and it should have stayed in Canadian hands where it would have allowed many people…its shareholders and workers alike from across this land and everywhere else, to share in her potential riches.
