I think that if the BC government said - we support the project as proposed and are ready to go (versus "we will conditionally support this project" after making an alliance with a group very opposed to it), the company would probably have not pulled out.  The last thing any company with a borderline economic project that has already faced 3 years of red tape wants to hear is "conditionally".  Didn't they already satisfy the "Conditions".  What are the new "conditions".  Get it?
