Op-Ed: Canadians Want More Mining, and the North is Poised to Play an Essential Role
For Canada to achieve its climate goals, substantive quantities of minerals and metals will be required to produce the clean technologies essential to a greener future – Canada’s North has a pivotal role to play in supplying the materials needed to meet this growing demand.
Op-ed: Canada’s Opportunity – Building the Mining Projects the World Needs
By now it is a foregone conclusion that in order for net-zero to be achieved the increased adoption of low carbon technologies is essential, with mining propelling the current seismic energy transition. Electric cars cannot exist without lithium, nickel and cobalt, nuclear energy without uranium, wind turbines and solar panels without copper, zinc, iron and […]
Why Canada needs an EV battery strategy – now
For half a century, oil production has been a major economic engine for Canada. But just as the internal combustion engine is starting to give way to the battery-powered electric vehicle (EV), so too does Canada need to develop a new industrial engine, says a new report by Clean Energy Canada and Trillum Network for […]
