Friedland has a bit of a rep up north, and it isn't all good. Something about monetizing a good story... FWIW

Bob Friedland's been active since the 1980s, and has lost and made fortunes several times over. Last year, in 1996, he made $600-million when he sold his claim to the world's richest nickel deposit in Voisey Bay in Labrador, Canada. This no doubt helped him battle the losses of his gold mine in Summitville, which in 1989 was called 'one of the ten most toxic sites in the USA'. It was this disaster that earned him the title of Toxic Bob. And he's still being chased by the US Justice Department, who want $150-million from him to clean up the site.
