"Governments and industry alike are pushing to rapidly unlock Canada’s critical minerals potential to lead us out of the climate crisis through sustainable and ethical mining practices. But the energy transition needs to be delinked from critical minerals and the opening of new mines. Failing to do so entrenches rather than transforms the process of extracting natural resources for consumer use – the traditional pattern at the root of the climate crisis."
