  A conference call by investors of a planned iron mine provides the soundtrack for a ride over the land which the company wants to exploit. The land in question is a traditional hunting ground for the Inuit community of Aupaluk, located in Canada's far North. The village has already been relocated in the 1980 and is now again under threat. The term "forward looking statements" is used in the world of investors to describe future events which are subject to certain risks and uncertainties.
