		<description><![CDATA[Hello:
Serious allegations.  This stuff should come out if there&#039;s any substance to it.

I was in aviation so wasn&#039;t at the working front in geology or construction although I was familiar with many aspects of the project.  I may be naive but never got a feeling that anything was this seriously amiss.

What was the other project?

&quot;...there are lots of people out there waiting to tell the story, I mean hundreds of people&quot;.  Odd that nothing has filtered out yet.  The press would eat this up if factual.

Out with the facts if there are any!

Cheers . . . .]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks for the information, C.  This thread has clearly provoked a response ... and seems to show that some people have stories to share.  

To be clear, though, I never said I worked at Galore Creek.  That was Gilles.  Your questions are directed to him.  Tad]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[BRE X maybe 

I was there worked there

A lot of illegal things went on there alot of us carried journals and diaries 

The funds were not utilized properly it was mismanaged to the max. Fund were utilized to fund another proiject

There are alot of people and companies that have not received payment for working there 

There is a big underlying story that has not been told and it will be told.  Like they say everything comes out in the wash.

The hospital in Smithers the Doctors and nurses can tell you nightmares of illegal things that were taking place by the injuries and accidents taking place
Oh yeah there is a big story out there.

What looked like Tec was funding the development of Galore Creek was not at all where the funds looked like they were going, my I syuggest

Someday all will come out and a lot of us contractors, employees and workers from Around the world that came to work on this project are awaiting to tell their story

McIlwraith you state you worked up there for two years up to this fall? my question to you is; Where were you posted? surely not at the for front with the rest of us.  When I say that there are lots of people out there waiting to tell the story, I mean hundreds of people

BRE X maybe time will tell

		<description><![CDATA[Hello Mr. McIlwraith:

Thanks for your reply.  I see your point, the comments are to speak for themselves, I suppose, you are just providing the forum.

I&#039;m all for freedom of speech and I guess that requires us all to look at everything quite critically.

Unfortunately, there are those who don&#039;t have the background to know that Gilles&#039; comments are mostly rubbish.

Cheers . . . .]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Springfield, you directed your comment in part to me, and I&#039;m not sure why - your observations relate solely to a comment by a visitor to this site.  I prefer not to censor commenters unless absolutely necessary.  (And, frankly, I think you interpreted the credibility of the previous comments just fine.  You say, after all, &quot;There may be a story here but this dis-jointed collection of ravings hardly encourages further inquiry.&quot;)

But since you disagree with the comments, I am pleased you posted your own opinion here.  I&#039;d like to think of this blog -- and many others -- as a place to discuss issues like the ones brought up in recent comments.  Please feel free to supplement it as you think appropriate.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In response to Gilles and to Mr. McIlwraith:

These are very serious allegations and should not be made without substantiation.

I have worked on the project for two years up until last fall.  To my knowledge (fairly extensive) there was no resemblance to Bre-X (ore-reserve fraud), no fatalities, no buried equipment, no one left out for &quot;days&quot;.  I have no direct knowledge of the other allegations.  It is possible that there may have been problems with some aspects of the project but nothing on the scale insinuated here.  The Bre-X insinuation is particularly serious and should be retracted or proven.

Gilles&#039; tone, grammar, spelling and content lean more towards &quot;sour grapes&quot; than professional, objective criticism and do not enhance the credibility of this Blog.  Who is the 6-times fired &quot;Doctor&quot;?  There may be a story here but this dis-jointed collection of ravings hardly encourages further inquiry.

I&#039;m not familiar with this Blog, or blogs in general, but it would seem that some editing of the comments might be wise.

Thank you . . . .]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ID like to leave a comment

I worked at Galore Creek
I was also ask to leave and threaten as what I observed was a BREX affair

I am a professional known around the world and I know and master my field of work and I tell you that as far as July first 90% of the coontractors, mining company, tunnelling company and other field of construction organization had not been PAID not one red cents in over 3 months, also lots of the things that went on there should not even of gone on no permits, nothing a BREX affair where did the money go allocated for this project? why was so many people injured and serious fatalities? why were there so many people flown to area in the glaciers to work with no site of the workplace and no one to come and retrieve them for hours some days? where were equipment flown out to sites and only buried? when they were garanteed 200 hours of use? why was there no gasoline for the equipment? why was there at times up to three days no water, poisioned food, having the Doctor fired up to 6 times because we all knew to much.  There is an underlyning story here and it is big, oh yeah and to burn chemicals, spray cans into the atmosphere??? has anyone ask themselves this questions
Please look into all of this you will descover a BREX of finance
I am surprised there was no daeth or was there ??]]></description>
