  1. And the solar farm, as Im sure you read, was also held up by a bird. They did alot of work trying to avoid damages to a local birds enviroment. At one point the project was almost cancelled all together.
  2. The 7 years I mentioned was for the mine, not the solar farm. I believe RRFN is looking at ecdev in a positive light. Its not just a money grab. They, as a community are trying to create jobs to further infrastructure to the community Its a smart plan if it works out and goes against the grain of many reserves living in poverty. The only way up is infrastructure/education/ecdev etc. But these plans take alot of time to see fruition. Initially yes more people have jobs, in time that means less welfare, more community spending, skilled labourers and tradesman. That leads to developement of housing and commercial goods ie grocery stores etc Im very good friends with chief and counsel(minus a few) and the plan is soliď IMO
  3. Tell that to the jews Tell it to the ukranians Tell it to the syrians Tell it to palestinians Ill refrain from petty insults...
  4. Im not there and I do not represent them. Im guessing they are bored and the geese havent come in yet? Anyhow continue on about alternative power. Lots to learn
  5. Agreed, just like every european settler is not a colonialist.
  6. Same with the mine im at now, 7 years to get the go ahead. Provides tons of jobs and guess what? The natives working there even pay taxes(GASP)
  7. And if ya want to complain about it, go read the treaties(there is some studying for you to do!) Your not complaining about the source of the issue. And that is our lovely queen
  8. This too is nonsense. But ill agree with one thing. It is about getting paid! Will you please allow me to drill for oil in your backyard? For free? Silly
  9. I just finished building a solar site and it took well over a year for the enviromental studies before the project could go ahead. I seen that first hand as well!
  10. Lol Im sure alot of people here still read, I know I do. But I tend to read about things Im passionate about or enjoy learning. Power sources isnt one of them, well maybe Tesla hes and interesting guy.
  11. Winter is my favorite time of year! Right next to spring fall and summer? Easy access to the lake is just a bonus, and who doesnt enjoy a nice sled ride?
  12. It still happens regardless bill(maybe not to a lucky few) Anytime my phone number is required I ask why and politely decline
  13. Execs are all connected families. They jump from government to corperate and back and forth. Sickening really
  14. I told them very clear not to share information and it was agreed upon. But its blatantly clear they do it anyways So who do I call?
  15. Habs are lookin good!
  16. I actually love nights! I might only sleep for 4 hours but at least i can get other stuff done. Plus they gave me the weekend off to acclimate? Working in the bush at night should be fun! Lotsa reports of bears and wolves in the area at night
  17. My bills arent too bad. Last one was $257 ???? RRFN just did a solar project and it pays my kids $1000/year each so thats kinda cool for us I guess? Or not really because all of us are paying for it?
  18. USE YOUR EYES!!!! Pics are bass jigs And a jig and pig isnt a jig and twister tail
  19. And straight to night shifts lol.
  20. Nah, if it was me I woulda done the same in texas. Why not? He never took it to extremes. He flipped his bat, big deal. Its happened thousands of times
  21. I agree. HT is just generic crap Spend the extra money and buy somethimg reliable. Ive never seen an HT product that wasnt just a price point piece of crap
  22. Hahah talk about poor sportsmanship. If it had gone the other way...
  23. Jealous? I love feta in a salad
  24. Ive never done it with the puffballs, but you will not be disappointed. Its a staple in our house now and with the weather turning, im guessing it will be on the menu often?
