Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Jeanty, the report makes some very important points about the balance that needs to be struck. The world, Canada included, absolutely needs critical minerals to protect our planet and stop global warming.
We also need our biodiversity, because it's our best ally when it comes to climate change. In Outaouais, mining the minerals will harm biodiversity and undermine indigenous rights.
Therefore, how do we strike the balance that Mr. DeMarco is recommending?
