Thank you, Chair.
We know Canada has the natural resources to be a leader in critical mineral development, but the challenge of quickly developing an A-to-Z critical minerals ecosystem needs partnership.
As budget 2022 states, we must find new ways of pooling our capabilities across the public sector, the private sector and industries. How will the new Canada growth fund enable these partnerships? How is Canada planning to attract the businesses and investments needed for us to develop a global critical mineral supply chain?
