“Our government supports young people by spending $6 billion to train them for building jobs. We are also putting $2 billion into a large new graphite mine in Quebec. These major projects create hundreds of jobs for the future.”

“Mr. Speaker, a government that supports its young people with $6 billion for job training in the building trades that are going to be in high demand is a government that believes in its young people, that believes in the future and that walks the talk when it comes to major projects. Last week, the Prime Minister was in Saint-Michel-des-Saints to announce Nouveau Monde Graphite. That is $2 billion that is being injected into the Quebec economy. This is the biggest graphite mine in the G7. We are talking about hundreds of jobs. This is the type of major project that we need in Quebec and across the country for our young people.”

“Our investments are creating jobs. Airbus in Mirabel got a record order for 150 planes, and our funding for Kruger in Trois-Rivières will add 350 jobs.”

“Mr. Speaker, we know how to give the next generation a chance and an opportunity: by making investments that create jobs. We can celebrate the new order for 150 new commercial aircraft from Airbus in Mirabel. This is the largest order in the history of commercial aviation in Canada. That is good news for people in the Lower Laurentians. There is more good news. I was also with the Quebec government when we announced new funding for Kruger in Trois-Rivières, which represents 350 new jobs. We recognize the company’s impact in the region.”

“Work has started on a new graphite mine in Quebec. It will be the largest one in North America. I want the minister to explain how this mine helps our economy and supply chain.”

“Mr. Speaker, last week, the Prime Minister officially broke ground on Nouveau Monde Graphite’s Matawinie mine in Saint-Michel-des-Saints, in the Lanaudière region of Quebec, just six months after the project was submitted to the Major Projects Office. Once completed, this mine will be the largest graphite mine in North America and the G7. Can the Minister of Public Works and Procurement and Quebec Lieutenant inform the House as to how this project will strengthen our critical minerals supply chain and support our efforts to build a stronger, more independent and more resilient Canadian economy?”

“A new graphite mine is opening in Quebec. It will add $2 billion to our economy, create hundreds of jobs, and help Canada and our allies supply our own energy.”

“Mr. Speaker, I want to thank the member for Terrebonne and say that it is a pleasure to thank her in the House. The launch of the Matawinie mine in Saint-Michel-des-Saints is a significant step toward our energy sovereignty. In addition to becoming the largest graphite mine in the G7 and increasing our production eightfold, it will meet Canadian demand and strengthen the resilience of our allies with whom we have signed more than 56 agreements on critical minerals over the past year. I am proud of this project. It will inject $2 billion into our economy and create hundreds of jobs. Projects like Nouveau Monde Graphite are what it means to be masters in our own house.”
