Interesting post Paul and very true but the story is even weird or sadder then you think.
Canadians make the discoveries but cann't get financing so are forced to deal with the multinational or foreign companies.
Prospectors make discoveries and try to raise capital or develop properties and are lucky if they can make a deal at all.
By and large Canadians ignor their natural resources and then complain when someone else developes them but they are unwilling to invest in or develop them themselves.
Mining has done more to develop the North and the Canadian economy then almost any other industry yet in Canada it is ignored, chastized forgotten.
Sad state of affairs when most Canadains know so little about their country.
regards Walt
