Canada is on a new path to secure it’s sovereignty

We need more diversity to ensure we are not locked into one path.

I believe this is a good path for Canada

Stellantis is adding back a third shift in Windsor.

“Workers laid off from Windsor Assembly are getting first crack at the third-shift jobs. From there, the union said that workers let go from the Brampton plant will be offered the chance to transfer to jobs in Windsor…” (350kms away 🙄)

Canada has what the world wants, including 34 critical minerals that are powering new technologies.

We’re moving forward on new mines and other major infrastructure so we can produce and sell more of them to the world — creating high-paying careers for Canadian workers.

SHAME!
Since oilsands mining operations started in 1967, 1.3 trillion litres of fluid tailings has accumulated in these open ponds on the Northern Alberta landscape. This is enough toxic waste to fill 400,000 Olympic swimming pools. www.pembina.org/blog/tailing... #cdnpoli #ableg #abpoli

The Canadian steel and lumber industries have always been at the heart of our competitiveness, our security, and our strength.

This week, we introduced new measures to strengthen and protect those industries, and the workers that power them.
