🇨🇦 The Xatśūll Fight to Halt Mount Polley Mine’s Tailings Expansion
"The company could resume adding mine waste to the facility next week. The harm would be irreversible, the First Nation says.
The Xatśūll First Nation is back in court this week renewing its pitch for an injunction to stop the Mount Polley mine from expanding the use of its tailings storage facility, a 60-metre-high dam that collapsed in 2014 and spilled 25 million cubic metres of waste into the Fraser watershed."
