A mining dispute in northwestern Ontario is before the Ontario Superior Court.
Northern Superior Resources says the provincial government didn’t do its due diligence in consulting area First Nations.
The company says it spent over $12-million on exploration work in the Sachigo Lake area before they were forced to abandon the project.
They are asking for $25-million in damages from the province.
NDP Critic Michael Mantha says the company is not alone in its dissatisfaction with the government.
Mantha says Northern Superior Resources is the fourth mining company since 2009 to take legal action against the province.
He stresses they Liberals have failed to do their job in creating a plan for resource development in the north.
