Considering CPTAQs purpose in life is to rule on property being AG or not AG only and has no power to either approve or deny a mine this spin out of GSLR is interesting. I will wait CCBs comments.

**** Important citizen victory in Canada Carbon mine file ***CPTAQ brings Canada Carbon back to order and denies it the right to operate a mine and quarry in Grenville-sur-la-Rouge, July 22, 2021-In an expanded decision of 34 The Commission de Protection du Territoire Agricole du Québec (CPTAQ) denies Canada Carbon (CCB) permission to operate a quarry and mine in the territory of Grenville-sur-la-Rouge (GSLR), and allows only exploration activities, for a period of 2 years, subject to conditions.'' The panel considers that at the time of issuing its decision, it did not have all the information to assess the project in its actual state. '' In this regard, CWB has failed to fulfil its duty and obligations to its shareholder and CPTAQ, omitting facts presented by Municipal experts and citizens. In its decision, CPTAQ points out that CWB '' does not have the right to provide an incomplete file '' and '' that the imprecise and incomplete side of the application does not allow it to assess its impact ".CPTAQ recognizes and notes the existence of Mr. St-Pierre's maple tree, recalling that a maple tree is '' a forest stand conducive to the production of maple syrup of a minimum of four hectares ", without it necessarily in operation.CPTAQ points out the points raised by the experts in the municipality, and that '' the risks associated with the establishment of a maple tree (...) will need to be better documented to respond to the apprehensions raised [by] Forest Engineer Goulet. '' CPTAQ '' notes that there is an ill-documented risk of the project's impact on the groundwater [according to] Perrier Experts-Conseil's hydrogeological report, (...) [and] additional expertise would be required ".
CPTAQ reminds CCB that counter-experts requested by the municipality may be necessary otherwise the courts may be called upon to decide this issue. This is an important warning that CWB should consider.
