In November 2023, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat launched the Supply Chain Regulatory Review. This consultation, incorporating a critical minerals theme, is intended to complement efforts taken under the Canadian Critical Minerals Strategy (launched in 2022) to ensure efficient regulatory processes and supply chain resiliency.
Without critical mineral exploration and development, there is no critical mineral supply chain. Steps must be taken to bolster the development of Canadian mines by supporting the trade and financing that make them possible, as well as coordinating support for mineral exploration and development within federal departments and different levels of government.
