How Much Gold For Your Vote?

What will a $14 million advertising budget buy in Alaska? A question we all need to be asking ourselves when we see the latest volley of propaganda hitting us on television, in the newspapers and on the radio. Have you noticed a change in the opinions of these communication mediums? Well we surely have and it was not unexpected today. Money is said to be the root of all evil. It is the leading cause of divorces in America, money woes are attributed to the greater part of suicides as well as criminal behavior. Hardly an area of our society is not impacted by its extensive reach. Our government is continually at odds with the people and their desires, increasingly in the news are reports of criminal deal making, back room politics, money laundering and more all to do with our government officials and big money. Are they selling us out? How much were we worth?

This week we have heard more pompous misinformation then before relating to mining and the Pebble Project in general. For us to believe the deceitful information being spread about, we would have to shun away the years of heartaches from seeing some of our favorite childhood recreation areas turned into toxic wastelands from years of small releases as well as accidents from upstream mining operations that released toxic waste and chemicals into the water.

Examples of Mining in the 21st Century.

Take Lake Roosevelt in Washington State as one current and ongoing example of the long term effects associated with large scale mining.

Though the dumping stopped more than a 10 years ago, litigation in the courts continues as to who will clean up the 26 billion pounds of hazardous waste, including arsenic, cadmium, mercury, copper, lead and zinc, from a Canadian smelter just a short 10 miles across the Washington State - Canadian border that has turned the favorite recreational playground located behind Grand Coulee Dam on the massive Columbia River into an environmental nightmare. By some estimates, cleanup of this environmental mess could exceed $1 billion dollars.

Quote from a recreational user; If you had this kind of pollution in Lake Washington or Puget Sound, there would be much louder outcry for justice.

Former EPA officials fear that it will be taxpayers, not Teck Cominco, who will pay for the clean-up.

Northern Dynasty Marketing Dollars at Work

Its easy to find people ready to hail your words when you wave 14 Million dollars at them. Have you seen the flood of people accepting the soiled dollars long before the evidence is in. This is a time for long-suffering. A time when we must stand our grounds for what we truly believe in. Don't fault Northern Dynasty, it is up to us as Alaskans as to what is to be done with the minerals safely tucked away in our lands. If your willing to give them away for a wish and a prayer of riches not yet seen then that's your prerogative. Personally, seven tenths of one percent is not much compared to the 99.3% received by outside, foreign companies.


The Pebble Mine project is located on land owned by the State of Alaska. Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. of Vancouver, Canada, developer of the Pebble Mine, holds 153 square miles of state land for mining claims within the Bristol Bay Watershed.

America needs gold to back our dying dollar so why are we giving all our minerals to foreigners?

Questions arise on who should benefit from the minerals contained within state lands.

Let's take a look at one alternative to permitting Northern Dynasty Minerals access to our lands that would benefit ALL ALASKANS from now to the end of the foreseeable future and possibility beyond.

Should we allow our gov. officials to dictate the future of our lands? These are your representatives in the
Alaska Government: The State of Denial.
