The minister replied that the government had announced 13 new critical mineral projects that day, with $5 billion from Canada and seven allied countries.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .

Mr. Speaker, the hon. member talks about critical minerals. I have good news. Today we found 13 new projects to invest in critical minerals, with $5 billion invested in Canada and in critical minerals from seven different allied countries. Maybe they should watch the news sometime.
