In Support of Beaver Dam Mine Project

As someone who has lived her entire life in Nova Scotia, I support the Beaver Dam Project.  This safe and environmentally friendly company brings good paying jobs to a province that is behind the times when it comes to a livable wage.  Companies like St Barbara provide safe and environmentally friendly jobs and are acting as leaders in the industry by committing to become a carbon neutral mine.

I have taken the time to review items submitted to the government, in supporting this project, please accept my following comments as a part of the consultation on the Beaver Dam Mine Project. I am aware that there have been numerous studies, environmental mitigation measures, environmental affects assessments and more submitted to the government to support the Beaver Dam Mine project. I have a high level of confidence in the quality of these studies, and I know that they were completed to the highest of standards. I am confident that through the information already submitted for this project, work with scientists and subject matter experts, engagement with rightsholders, as well as our Company’s consultation with communities around Beaver Dam that this project can be completed safely, while protecting our shared environment and is something that all Nova Scotians can take pride in.

I thank you for your time and consideration of the consultation I have provided.
