I recently saw this on social media which I realize always needs to be questioned however has anyone else heard of this?

heard about it last fall from friend who fishes the oldman river ,  the story in link might be updated because on Feb 9th this year the decision to open up more mining area's was rescinded (lawyer talk for cancelled) reinstating the previous 1976 agreement, only know little bit about it - mining will continue in some area's allowed under old agreement like just north and west of Coleman.
