This petition is against Rio-Tinto/IOC's proposal to have a permanent fly-in/fly-out workforce in Labrador West. A workforce of this nature has many negative community issues such as the erosion of our tax base, fi-fo workers usually don't support any community organizations, it stunts the growth of a community, there's more criminal activity with transients, and many more negatives. Please sign it and we thank you for your support.
The momentum behind this effort is undeniable and shows that our community refuses to be sidelined. Now is the time to turn this energy into action by sending an email to your local representative today to demand a meeting on this proposal.

Labrador West is our home not just a place to dump workers and leave. Keep the money and the families here.

enough is enough, rio tinto needs to do right by the people who have lived here for generations instead of trying to save a buck.
