Ontario – Ontario Premier Doug Ford said: “The US is taking action to decouple from China, offering Canada a once-in-a-generation opportunity to reconfirm our strategic value to our American allies. Together, we can build Fortress Am-Can, a beacon of stability, security and long-term economic growth on both sides of the border. Fortress Am-Can will need Ontario’s critical minerals in the Ring of Fire to succeed. I’m thrilled that our partners Marten Falls First Nation and Webequie First Nation are making real progress building the roads to the Ring of Fire, with geotechnical work at borehole testing sites well underway. This is bringing us one step closer to unlocking this generational opportunity to grow our economies and protect our shared national security.”
