III-T didn't see that coming. Closed $10.11 up $1.38 vol. 642,470. I still wouldn't touch it. The British Columbia government's release of information about Imperial Metals' Mount Polley mine is under fire. The Globe's Sunny Dhillon writes that B.C.'s privacy commissioner Elizabeth Denham is looking at what was disclosed before the massive tailings pond spill. Calls for more transparency in the wake of the disaster are mounting. Ms. Denham will investigate whether the government should have notified the public about the mine's potential risks before the tailings pond breach. She says, "After reviewing all publicly available information about the Mount Polley incident, and in light of a complaint received by my office, I have decided to investigate." The complaint was filed by Vincent Gogolek, executive director of the B.C. Freedom of Information and Privacy Association. He wrote it "appears that the government had information about the dangerous conditions" but chose not to release it. Mr. Gogolek said he is not after a specific document but believes the province has information that belongs in the public realm. Opposition NDP leader John Horgan has also been calling for the full release of documents.
