Hugo Salinas Price: Dollar's reserve currency status destroys U.S. manufacturing

Section: Daily Dispatches

7:02p ET January 10, 2017

Dear Friend of GATA and Gold:

Hugo Salinas Price, president of the Mexican Civic Association for Silver, explains tonight how the U.S. dollar's role as the world reserve currency has destroyed so much manufacturing in the United States. The only way countries can obtain dollars, Salinas Price writes, is to export to the United States, and they can do that only if they price their products below the prices charged by U.S. manufacturers. An alternative system, Salinas Price writes, would require a different reserve currency, the contrivance created by the International Monetary Fund -- Special Drawing Rights -- or a certain rather scarce yellow metal that used to do the job well and impartially. Salinas Price's commentary is headlined "Trump's Ignorance" and it's posted at the Mexican Civic Association for Silver's internet site, Plata.com.mx, here:

Canadian Government Issues Key Water License
for Seabridge Gold's KSM Project in British Columbia

Company Announcement
Monday, November 21, 2016

TORONTO -- Seabridge Gold Inc. (TSX: SEA) (NYSE:SA) announced today it has received a license from the Government of Canada required for the construction, operation, and maintenance of the water storage facility and associated ancillary water works at its 100 percent-owned KSM Project in northwestern British Columbia.

The license, as authorized within the International Rivers Improvement Act, regulates all structures and activities situated on transboundary waters shared with the United States that have the potential to affect water quality and quantity.

These facilities separate water that has not contacted mined material from so-called contact water originating from disturbed areas of the mine site and then contain the contact water prior to treatment and eventual release to the receiving environment.

These facilities are situated on Mitchell and Sulphurets creeks, tributaries of the transboundary Unuk River system that flows into Alaska. The license was granted for a term of 25 years under the International Rivers Improvements Regulations as administered by Environment and Climate Change Canada. ...
