Get the Ring of Fire going

I see the Ring of Fire west of James Bay has been getting good publicity lately, especially from the NDP. As we are well aware, Sudbury was developed more than 100 years ago from the minerals in the ground.

I see the Ring of Fire west of James Bay has been getting good publicity lately, especially from the NDP. As we are well aware, Sudbury was developed more than 100 years ago from the minerals in the ground. The roads and railroad in those days helped develop the city’s of Sudbury and Timmins.

It is estimated that at least $68 billion, and possibly double that, is in the Ring of Fire.

If this is the case, the First Nations and the governments will be sitting pretty.

When the roads and railways start moving, the mines start moving, and eventually, a new city with plenty of jobs.

The sooner, the better for everyone involved.
