Federal Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson vows to make government move faster and more efficiently in expediting approvals to put more Canadian mines into production ahead of the quickening global demand for critical minerals.
“We are talking to the Province of Ontario on things we potentially can do in the short term, but we obviously don’t make large-scale commitments until environmental assessments are finished.” “We obviously need to see significant enhancements in the volume of critical minerals that we are producing. But I also think Canadians expect us to ensure that we are continuing to consider the environment in the context of project development and, of course, we need to discharge our duties to Indigenous peoples," he said.
But the process continues to lag. Wilkinson’s successor, Steven Guilbeault, has yet to sign off on the terms of reference to start this process. “So the last thing we want to do is disturb the carbon sink in order to extract minerals to fight climate change,” said Wilkinson. “We need to make sure we’ve got pathways to do this in a manner that is environmentally responsible.”
