The president of Imperial Metals, Brian Kynoch, claims that the water in the
tailings pond is "near drinking water quality" and expressed disbelief that
the impoundment could fail so catastrophically, despite the fact that
Canadian officials had issued multiple warnings to Imperial Metals for
exceeding water quality standards for effluent and exceeding the permitted
wastewater levels in the pond.

So in other words Mr. Kynoch just *assumed* everything was peachy keen so
why bother with pesky engioneers and environmentalists? Let's see Mr.
Kynoch drinka few pints of that water.

"That's why we have laws, regulatory agencies, oversight, courts, etc." Not
for them, we don't. No laws, regualtions and oversight stops these people
from cutting every single corner they can to increase profits.
