You also ignore the precedents set by Teck corp in its arrangement with the people of the Red Dog. It is not the assets of a small mining company that would tempt the Ahousaht, but the wealth of THEIR mine, which they would(and should) share.

Ah, do you favor policy and statutes that foster synergy between big gov't, big industry and special interest groups? Oligopoly and favored special status is not market based or anything near free enterprise or democratic. Forestry in BC is the classic example of oligopoly where about 80% or more of the stumpage is collected from just a few companies. It is clear that BC gov't only wants big mining and oil and gas companies but not an exploration industry that feeds them. Oligopoly also stifles initiative, efficiency and growth.
