“You cannot defend a country without critical minerals. Not your borders. Not your environment. Not your economy.”

Vale’s Jeff Gaulin, Vice President Corporate Affairs who appeared at the #NationalDefenceCommittee for the Critical Minerals Study.

Creating safe, equitable environments is critical, and that’s exactly the work that SQUAD is leading in our community.

CBC article that reads: Goodbye EV sales mandate. Hello purchase rebates. Carney shakes up Canada’s auto industry

We’re building a strong Canadian auto sector where our workers build the cars of the future — and we’re launching a new program to make EVs more affordable for Canadians.

Because in a strong economy, we can buy what we build.

We’re taking real action to help Canadians deal with high food prices. And we’ve got a plan for our auto sector and workers.

That’s how we Build Canada Strong.
C’est ainsi que nous pouvons Bâtir un Canada Fort.

Two weeks since I’ve been back in Ottawa. Our government is off to a strong start with Food and Essentials Benefit and Auto Strategy.

Nous prenons des mesures concrètes pour lutter contre la hausse des prix des laments. Et nous avons un plan pour notre secteur automobiles et nos travailleurs.

Great to see our downtown water tower lit up in the Pan-African colours this month for #BlackHistoryMonth.

C'est un témoignage puissant des contributions de la communauté noire à Sudbury.

Thanks to SWSE for this incredible initiative. If you're downtown this month, take a moment to look up.

It's not everyday you get to be a dental assistant! 🦷

Exciting morning at Cambrian College to announce $2.6M to support the development of Northeastern Ontario’s first Level II dental assisting program and new Dental Simulation Lab.

#NorthernOntario has a proud mining legacy. We are known across the globe as a mining powerhouse, and we are ready to lead in the clean economy.

Le ministre Tim Hodgson en a fait l'expérience la semaine dernière.

Aujourd’hui, nous avons rencontré avec une délégation du Comité des affaires étrangères du Parlement de la République de Finlande

Democracy in action as Canada hosted a delegation of Finland’s Foreign Affairs Committee. We discussed matters of defence and security in the EU.

Le ministre Hodgson a visité nos sites miniers où il a pu constater que Sudbury possède les minéraux critiques dont le monde a besoin.

Sudbury is ready to help build Canada Strong.

Sudbury is at the centre of mining & mining innovation. We’re home to over 300 mining & mining supply companies, 9 operating mines, 2 mills, 2 smelters and a nickel refinery. We’re home to talent and investments valued across the globe.

We had a chance to showcase just this to Minister Hodgson.

Today, we honour the Canadians who have served and defended our country. We remember.

En ce jour du Souvenir, et chaque jour, rendons hommage aux anciens combattants et aux membres des Forces armées canadiennes. Portons la lumière du souvenir vers l’avenir.

In the room where it happens, or should we say rooms. Today was back to back meetings with Mayor Paul Lefebvre's trip to Ottawa. Housing, Industry, Finance, International Trade, Transport.

Making sure Sudbury is being represented!

Aujourd'hui, c'était la journée de Sudbury sur la colline. Ce fut un plaisir de travailler avec le maire Lefebvre pour faire avancer les priorités de Sudbury. Faisons en sorte que de grandes choses se réalisent pour notre communauté !

This #VeteransWeek we honour the sacrifices made by Canadian veterans around the world, but especially those here in Sudbury.

Nous rendons hommage aux sacrifices de tous ceux qui ont servi le Canada en temps de guerre, de conflit et de paix.
