Fully Support Castle Project

As a life long resident of Elkford BC, and a 3rd generation coal miner at Fording River Operation I fully support the Castle project and Teck. I have personally seen Teck's commitment to "sustainable mining, environmental stewardship and safety" I have also seen how much Teck has done for the local, provincial and federal economy by employing numerous people directly or indirectly through mining. This project will continue to provide those jobs and boost the economy for future generations, just has it done for my family for the past 40 years. I fully trust that Teck will continue to be a world leader in "Environmental Stewardship" while undertaking this project. Approval of the Castle Mountain Project is essential for the future of mining and jobs in the Elk Valley.
