Techopia Live: The critical issue of critical minerals

Canada has a long and successful history in mining. While some might think the industry’s best days are behind it, experts say a convergence of factors ‒ economic, geopolitical and environmental ‒ could mean mining is poised for unprecedented growth in Canada.

This growth is critical to Canadian manufacturers, including Ottawa’s own technology sector, because these minerals are key components in electronics hardware. In this episode of Techopia Live, Ottawa Business Journal publisher Michael Curran speaks with Pierre Gratton, the president and CEO of the Mining Association of Canada. Also, Peter Nicholson, president of the Foundation WCPD, talks about a joint event planned with the mining association on Nov. 3 at Hub350 in Kanata. More information about that event here.
