Prime Minister Justin Trudeau touted Canada’s mineral resources while visiting a new rare earth elements processing plant in Saskatoon, saying the country is the perfect alternative to China which has been dominating the market.
“People are realizing that this extraordinary transformation that’s going on in our economy towards electric vehicles, towards more high tech, advanced solutions on everything we do, is going to require access to critical minerals and rare earth elements that to this point have been dominated by China as a somewhat challenging partner at the best of times,” Trudeau said at the Vital Metals plant.
