As the U.S. imposes tariffs on all Canadian goods, a new report is highlighting just how much Ontario’s mining sector exports to the country.

The report from the Ontario Mining Association and the provincial government shows the industry exported $42 billion in minerals to the U.S. in 2023, making up about two-thirds of the $64 billion in global mineral exports from Ontario that year.
