Wolf Lake is a pristine well used corridor for recreational canoe / back country campers skirting some of Ontario’s red pine forests. It’s time to think beyond mineral resource capitalization and think about the natural legacy such a place as as this afford All Canadians. Read more

Wolf lake and the surrounding lands are some of Temagami’s most striking and valuable public lands. It contains one of North America’s last remains stands of (underprotected) virgin red pine forests.

Apparently, Flag Resources has put in a new application for mineral exploration at Wolf Lake. If approved, they could use heavy equipment to get in, strip trees, vegetation and soil, excavate rock, and drill, causing unacceptable damage to this sensitive and endangered ecosystem. Read more

It is exactly this exploration that is the problem. It is invasive. You are speaking about stripping sections of land, disturbing the surroundings to see once more, if after decades of exploring with no tangible results if there are minimal deposits. Read more

Do not approve the Flag Resources application to approve the mineral exploration of the Wolf lake area. This is totally unnecessary. This is very damaging to our environment.
