Is the Ontario Mining Act broken, or is it doing exactly what it should be doing?  Mark and Krystyn examine why the Mining Act is failing Ontarians by allowing “bad actors and bad actions” to use the Act to their advantage, and the steps the government is taking to try and solve the problem.  We also speak with musician and concerned citizen Joey Wright, who tells us about his community’s battle against a proposed Uranium mine in Lanark County.
