Mary, as long as you decided to give us all a history lesson according to the book of Tome why not include the most important piece of the school trust past, instead of conveniently ignoring it? There would be no controversy today and the School Trust Fund would have benefitted enormously years ago, plus the money it received would have been invested for the past fourteen years, if certain Iron Range politicians had not stopped a full buyout of BWCAW school trust lands in 1997. The buyout was essentially a done deal, supported by the entire federal ten member Minnesota Congressional Delegation. If this issue were about the children, the buy out would have happened in 1997. If this issue were about the children, a buy out would happen today, instead of speculating with our children’s future by advocating for a land exchange that would first and foremost benefit toxic sulfide mining. Corporations are using our children as bait, and you are helping them.
