In particular, the water bombers are critical. I know that there have been some situations in Atlantic Canada, for example, when we've had to shuttle them back and forth between New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. Enhancing that capacity is critical.
When it comes to critical minerals, which have been mentioned already, we know they're going to be one of the major, if not the critical, natural resources of the 21st century. Canada is a top five producer of 11 critical minerals. We have the reserves, we have the projects and we have the expertise to become a leading producer.
Can you share, Minister, what the government is doing to grow the critical mineral sector and attract investment in that really important industry?
