The world needs Canada’s critical minerals—and fast. Global demand for priority critical minerals is projected to almost double by 2040. These critical minerals represent a multi-billion dollar economic opportunity for Canada.
But current investments are not keeping pace with demand, and Canada is in danger of losing out on billions while navigating a volatile and competitive trade environment.
The Canadian Climate Institute’s new report, Critical Path: Securing Canada's place in the global critical minerals race, looks at four ways governments can attract investment, accelerate development, and capture opportunities arising from the global energy transition. They can do this by sharing financial risks while upholding Indigenous rights and environmental protections.
Get up to speed on this important research in a 15-minute Q&A with host Julia Kilpatrick and Marisa Beck, Research Director of the Institute’s Clean Growth program and lead author of the Institute’s latest report.
