When a mountain speaks, do you listen?

This has been a question circulating the North Shore for well over two years. And, while this query has been left in the hands of artists to find answers, it really is a public concern.

La Cloche Mountains Preservation Society Dedicated to the protection of the the natural beauty of Willisville Mountain and the La Cloche Mountains.

'As the current Lawson Quarry will meet VALE's needs for the next 80 years, a period of time longer than the life of the company's current estimated ore reserves in the Sudbury Basin, we request areas B,C and D from the aggregate license #20568 be surrendered by VALE so there will be no future mining or quarry operations.'

- This motion was presented to VALE and the MNR at the June 2 public information meeting by the Sudbury Condominium Corporation #5, the governing body of the Village of Willisville, and supported by the La Cloche Mountains Preservation Society.

On April 15, 2011 Vale surrendered areas B, C and D from Aggregate License #20568.

It is a historic day for Canada and Vale must be sincerely congratulated for its decision.
