Junior miners are struggling more than any time in recent history. Flow through is our last lifeline!

Please support this petition. Canada could use it knowledge and experience in mining to generate much needed employment for all regions of Canada and boost our export sector and provide the metals for a green future.

The Flow through share program is an excellent initiative by the Canadian Govt. It helped us fund a substantial critical minerals drilling program which is now underway. The drilling funds were all spent with Canadian companies. It would be extremely helpful for companies like mine to be able to access further funds to advance studies towards the development of the project.

CEE and METC are incredibly important to the exploration industry in Canada and are the reason, in addition to our mineral endowment, that we are always near the top in exploration expenditures worlwide. We need to continue and improve both to continue to lead the world.

Access to flow through funding is absolutely critical to maintain access of junior exploration companies to the capital necessary to conduct exploration programs across Canada.

If we are looking for an economic advantage and to keep high-paying jobs in Canada in the face of US tariffs and interference this is essential and it is irresponsible of the government to be adding more uncertainty to the investment climate in Canada at this critical juncture

The importance of our resource sector has never been more apparent. We need to protect the advantage for Canadians to fund and support it.

Keep the mineral exploration tax incentives going. Exploration and mining is the backbone of Canada's remote areas and key for independence.

As the founder of PearTree I would like to express my appreciation and thanks to those on our team who authored this petition. Over the years going back as far as 2012 we have provided the federal and some provincial governments with verifiable data proving that tax incentives are the most effective way to drive economic activity at the least cost to the fiscal authourity. The flow-through share regime enables small companies to raise public funds not otherwise seen in other sectors. We are at a cross roads in Canada. Success in exploiting our resources is not assured. The support and expansion of the the flow-through regime may be the only way to increase the chances of meeting any of the resource policy objectives. We need lots of voices in the discussion. Please share the petition.

Thanks for doing this. Our tax junkies have no idea how the economy works and how to stimulate growth

Flow Through is the life blood of junior exploration companies, and northern communities. Without junior explorers there are no new mines. Senior companies tend not to explore organically. Juniors find deposits - Seniors mine them. Without FT the "food chain" stops.

If Canada is to survive, in this strange new world, we need to work toward our mineral potential strength.

We at the Critical Minerals Institute (CMI) consistently emphasize that Canada is the top jurisdiction for investing in critical minerals --- and that we should be making critical minerals' exploration a prime investment destination for the global market. The METC is a pivotal economic tool that reinforces this message to the market. We believe that the renewal of the METC indefinitely is a crucial tool in achieving this goal.

We desperately need help in our industry. Gold all time high, rare earth's all time highs and can not raise a penny to go to work. EFN well that is another subject. Thanks Trudeau for ruining the greatest country on earth. In record time..

We need this to compete on a global stage, and to develop and benefit from our world class mineral resources.
