Response from Fisheries Minister to Letter Protesting Environment Regulation Change

I just received this response from Minister of Fisheries, Loyola Hearn. This is the letter I originally sent to Federal and Provincial Environment and Fisheries Ministers, and Opposition Critics. At least it's good to know that politicians are reading this.

Mr. _______________ (SMTP: ______@nl.rogers.com)

Dear Mr. _________________:

Thank you for your correspondence of May 30, 2006, regarding the Metal Mining Effluent Regulations (MMER) amendment process as it relates to the use of fish-bearing waters as tailing impoundment areas.

Although the MMER are regulations created under the Fisheries Act, the administrative responsibility for these regulations have been delegated to Environment Canada, due to their broad expertise regarding environmental contaminants. Environment Canada is also responsible for carrying out the regulatory amendment process for the MMER.

In order to facilitate public comment during the Canada Gazette process, Fisheries and Oceans Canada will refer all correspondence to the Honorable Rona Ambrose, Minister of Environment, for consideration when finalizing the amendments to the MMER.

Thank you for your interest in the current regulatory amendment and for taking the time to bring your views to the Government of Canada.

Sincerely,



Loyola Hearn, P.C., M.P.

c.c. The Honourable Rona Ambrose, P.C., M.P.

I received the very same response.

I guess since I submitted the ery same letter I should have expected the same.

Just one more example of why NL'ians are where we are because we don't have control of our own destiny nor environment.

Like Off Shore Oil. harper wouldn't entertain the Proposed Fallow Field legislation like Alberta did unilateraly because they owned it.

Destruction of the fisheries by outside interests for the benefit of Ontario and Canada's manufacturing industry through trade concessions.

Unwillingness to lay claim to the Continental Shelf in accordance with the United Nation Law of the Sea article 76.

Unwillingness of Ottawa to sign onto the Ban Bottom dragging to help protect and preserve the ecology of the continental shelf and promote a recovery of the fishery.

Clawing back of non-Renewable resource revenues against the equalization formula. A shell game designed to keep NL down.

Failure of Ottawa to implement a national power corridor to allow the development of the Upper and now Lower Churchill for th benefit of NL'ians. Unlike what they did for Alberta's natural gas where they pushed a corridor across three provinces.

Send a message to Ottawa and Canada that we aren't happy with this Colonial/Federalism Don't vote in the next federal election.
