Information on Areva, Cameco, uranium deals sought by Saskatchewan magazine

Sask. magazine sues to get information on uranium deal with village CTV News,The Canadian Press January 29, 2014 A Saskatchewan magazine is hoping the courts can accomplish what the province’s privacy commissioner has not been able to do. Editors from Briarpatch Magazine have been trying to get documents from the northern Village of Pinehouse on agreements it has with uranium mining companies Areva and Cameco.

Pinehouse Mayor Mike Natomagan is named as the defendant on the statement of claim filed Tuesday in Court of Queen’s Bench in Regina.

The non-profit magazine filed a freedom of information request in April 2013, and Saskatchewan privacy commissioner Gary Dickson recommended that Natomagan provide the requested material.

The statement of claim asks for the financial statements of Pinehouse Business North, a subsidiary corporation of the village; documents that show the distribution of year-end surpluses or losses to Pinehouse from its subsidiary; and copies of correspondence between the uranium companies and the subsidiary regarding payments to the village. http://saskatoon.ctvnews.ca/sask-magazine-sues-to-get-information-on-uranium-deal-with-village-1.1660884#ixzz2rtnEE5AN
