In Sudbury, federal Industry Minister Mélanie Joly announces $6.7 million in funding for two Canadian mining projects that will help further the extraction of critical minerals and enhance the monitoring of ecological restoration in the sector.

Joly is joined by Viviane Lapointe, MP for Sudbury, and Rhonda Barnet, interim CEO of Canada’s Digital Technology Cluster.

The minister faces questions from reporters on the possible impact the government’s decision to select Germany’s TKMS to build its new submarine fleet will have on Algoma Steel workers in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. The other bidder for the submarine contract, Korea’s Hanwha Ocean, had committed $345 million to build a new Algoma steel beam mill in Sault Ste. Marie.
