I fully support the 15 Mile Processing Hub project! 

I applaud the company and the government for bringing this project back to life! 

With the pressure all of us are experiencing, we need to ensure that there are good paying (taxable) jobs, profitable companies (taxes and royalties) to help grow our economy, support those that can’t support themselves and to provide a glimmer of hope that those who are growing up in Nova Scotia, can stay and raise families in Nova Scotia.   

St. Barbara is meeting their commitments of reclaiming the old mine site in Moose River, they have provided over $2,000,000.00 in community support AND cleaned up - for free, historical toxic tailings around the Touquoy Project site.  On top of all that they will do it again, 7 more times at the site of the 15 Mile Resource Hub, again for FREE.

The 15 Mile Resource Hub Project is also on track to provide over 5 billion to the provincial GDP over the span of the project, 700 jobs while in operation and 1300 during construction!  All of this in RURAL nova scotia. 

I say again, I fully support this well thought out, environmentally responsible, community minded modern mining resource hub.
