    Have you heard if the diamond mines are still in production and development in Northern Sasketchewan?

    I was toying with the idea of going to work at the new mines at Atlin or Iskut but they are both on hold.
    I haven't heard Native Dancer...I am leased on with an LTL carrier that runs strictly North & we haven't seen too much of a slow down...yet. But I know alot of people are pretty nervous right now.

    As far as I've heard it's business as usual, but will likely be shorter, since there will be less freight to haul. Last I heard the mines had been cut back to one shift, but who knows for sure...there's still over a month till the road opens...things could change.

    Sorry Ron, since this thread is over a year old, I've just been updating "this" one as I have time.

    Different places, New Highways

    Been pretty busy, so haven't had much time for updates.
