There will never be another mine anywhere in the world that does not have some opposition to it. But this is the best place we could ask to have a mine in Canada. It's in a traditional mining district (Trail is home to Cominco's lead zinc smelter, one of the larger complexes in North America). Several years ago the province of BC went through a land use process called CORE (Committee on Resources & the Environment) and this area was designated to have mining.

The BC gov't's attitude to mining seems to be improving, too. I notice they approved Redfern's Tulsequah Chief project a week ago or so.
