I was sworn into office of minister, and a month later the mine shuts down, or notice was given. The identical thing occurred once I initially got elected as MLA. Within about two months of being sworn in as MLA in 'ninety two, Curragh shut down - or introduced a big massive layoff.

I can say this additionally to the member that we, on the Yukon side of issues, have certainly accomplished our work and put it all into the Government of British Columbia enviornment at this time limit, they usually've been only a tad slower - fairly a bit slower actually - than what we would like to see. So, definitely earlier than my deputy minister left, we had a great, detailed dialogue as to how we might transfer them alongside to get this memorandum working.

The federal government has left the north out, because the cancellation within the economic growth agreement, of any substantive funding for financial diversification. In Atlantic Canada, they've an Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, they have the package deal in Newfoundland for the cod fishery.

I wish to say that the problem of the neighborhood must be handled on the floor of this Legislature. I know the group was built to support the mine, but I do believe the neighborhood has a future. We have 167 kids in that college, college students nonetheless studying, nonetheless expecting to obtain the same providers as other Yukon college students. All those families where those college students come from deserve and expect their government to treat them with respect. The members opposite can slice and dice it any way they need, however each time we make a move to support the community of Faro, or the mine, there's a criticism - in depth, massive criticism.

When we have a look at the financial benefits, Mr. Speaker, there are a selection of areas the place Yukon folks can become involved.

And yet right here this authorities is eternally crying, "We haven't obtained the money. We cannot do that. We can't be all issues to all people."
