Where would the minerals to build #WindWest come from? And why does it matter? Find out at facebook.com/MiningNS/posts… We need to do more mining in democracies like Canada, and less in countries that do not share our values or take proper care of the environment and safety. #nspoli


Before getting operating permits, Nova Scotian mining companies must get government approval of reclamation plans and post reclamation bonds (money in escrow, basically) to ensure sites are fully reclaimed at no cost to taxpayers. Reclamation is a key part of mining now. #nspoli
