*Independent journalism is generally free from government and corporate interests, and not controlled by a major media conglomerate. “Independence” is a gradient, so use your best judgement when posting.

*Current depends on whether new, publicly available information has been released since the article has last been updated. When in doubt, add the publishing or last revision date to the title in a tag [like this.]

All communities were created with the goal of increasing media literacy and media pluralism.

MODERATORS
 

Indigenous leaders from the Similkameen Valley are “deeply disappointed” by a provincial decision to approve a contentious mine expansion in their territories — emphasizing that they did not give consent for the project to move forward.

On Monday, the “B.C.” government announced it had issued Mines Act and Environmental Management Act permits for the New Ingerbelle expansion of the Copper Mountain Mine near “Princeton” in smǝlqmíx territory.

The expansion project will see the century-old mining operation revive its old Ingerbelle open pit gold and copper mine site near nməlqytkʷ (the Similkameen River). The expansion will extend the mining’s operation until 2047, the province said.
