  • Please say NO to the Gold Project.  Gold mining involves the use of cyanide, which is deadly to all life.  Indigenous peoples live here.  Their homes would be destroyed, and they would be subject to the toxicity of mining.  The mine would also destroy the habitats of fish, birds, woodland caribou, pine martens, and plenty of other animals. During this climate emergency, we can not afford to destroy forests and wildlife habitat.     Gold mining is harmful to all life, and to the planet.  Forcing fish and birds to be exposed to the effluent, and cutting them up to test them for selenium and other pollutants is cruel and outdated.  Canada is phasing out toxicity testing on animals.  Please switch to animal free methods of testing effluent and other substances.  For wild fish and birds, please stop lethal sampling and switch to humane non lethal bio monitoring like is done in humans. https://www.change.org/p/stop-testing-sewer-water-on-laboratory-fish   Please do not build another gold mine.  We are in the midst of a climate crisis. This proposal, which would damage and destroy the homes of black bears, caribou, birds, fish, and many animals, is terrible.  And gold mines destroy all sorts of animals in laboratory testing of their effluents, and in lethal sampling of birds, fish, frogs, etc.  We do not need more gold mines. Please preserve the trees at this location.  Please do not build on an area that has a lot of trees, and do not build on a wetland either.  Please do not harm animals with this project. Please do not use animal testing for pollution monitoring.  It mentions that ...

  • w w w . m m f . m b . c a Review of Alamos Gold Inc’s Proposed Changes to the Lynn Lake Gold Project – Manitoba Métis Federation April 2025 MMF Review of Proposed Changes to Lynn Lake Gold Project | 2 1.0 Introduction The Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (IAAC) notified the Manitoba Métis Federation – the National Government of the Red River Métis (MMF) – about Alamos Gold Inc.’s proposed changes to the Lynn Lake Gold Project (The Project). The Lynn Lake Gold Project is located within the National Homeland of the Red River Métis, in the MMF’s Thompson Region, and therefore has the potential to impact the exercise of Red River Métis s.35 rights, claims and interests. As such, the IAAC has requested the MMF to provide comments on the Draft Analysis Report and the Proposed Amended Decision Statement that have been prepared by the IAAC. 2.0 Background—The Red River Métis and the MMF 2.1 The Red River Métis The Red River Métis is an Indigenous collectivity and Aboriginal People within the meaning of section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982. Based on our emergence as a distinct Indigenous People in the Northwest prior to effective control by Canada and the creation of the province of Manitoba, the Red River Métis holds rights, interests, and claims throughout and beyond the Province of Manitoba. Since 1982, Métis rights have been recognized and affirmed by section 35 and protected by section 25 of the Constitution Act, 1982. These rights were further confirmed and explained by the Supreme Court of Canada ("SCC") in R. v. Powley, 2003 SCC 43. Manitoba Courts also have recognized Red River Métis rights in R. v. Goodon, 2008 MBPC 59. These ...
