Yes...and thank you, Mr. Sidhu.
Listen—history will tell. What I can say is that what you've said is true. I think people see something here, and I say it starts with talent. We have brought more women into the workforce and we bring more people. We've been training people to seize these generational opportunities.
You're right to say that Canada really stands out when people are comparing different jurisdictions. First of all, they see a country that has potential market access, like I said, to, for example, the United States and Mexico. They also see a place that has all the critical minerals, not only for the batteries but for the semiconductors. I'll make you a prediction: I think critical minerals are going to be in the 21st century what oil was in the 20th century. This is going to be key to ensuring prosperity, because people see that you need critical minerals to make batteries and semiconductors.
To your point, it's not only in the auto sector. I want to say this because our Conservative colleagues will love this as well. Look at Dow. We have attracted the largest single investment in Dow's history—I think for more than 100 years—in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. BHP is the largest mining company in the world. In Jansen, Saskatchewan, in potash, phase one was the largest project in more than 150 years of history or thereabouts, and phase two was the second-largest. You've seen BHP investing $22 billion in Canada.
Those are big investments. You have Dow as one of the biggest investments. You have BHP as one of the biggest investments, and you have Honda, which is also one of the biggest investments.
To your point, it's true: Canada stands out. We have seen record levels of investment. I think our policies are working, because you have international companies that could allocate capital wherever they want, and they've chosen to come here. For me, I think Canada is the strategic partner of the 21st century, and we've seen that time and time again with big investments.
