Talks between Big Trout Lake and the Province on Hold

Talks between Big Trout Lake and the Ontario Government are on hold.

The First Nation feels the province is unable to provide assurance that mining  exploration by God's Lake Resources would stop while the joint panel meets.

Three deputy ministers were recently in the remote first nation community to meet with band members about the creation of a joint panel.

This past summer, Big Trout Lake issued an ultimatum to God's Lake, about its mining activity on KI's traditional land use territory.
