Canada is accelerating critical minerals development and building more resilient, diversified supply chains to create prosperity, jobs and enhance our national security. Central to this effort is the creation of the Canadian Digital Core Library (CDCL) — a national platform that will facilitate access to digitized drill core data from across the country. Drill cores provide valuable information about mineral deposits and the size, quality and economic potential of a mineral resource. This information is what allows Canada to identify strategic new mining projects across the country and mine the resources that underpin national defence, advanced manufacturing and the energy transition.
The Government of Canada is focused on building a stronger economy and making life more affordable for Canadians. Today, the Honourable Gary Anandasangaree, Minister of Public Safety, on behalf of the Honourable Heath MacDonald, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food, highlighted the launch of the National Food Security Strategy.

Today, on the margins of the 2026 Energy and Mining Ministers Conference (EMMC) in Yellowknife, the Honourable Tim Hodgson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, announced investments of up to $73 million for 12 projects from across Canada that will advance sustainable mining, strengthen Indigenous partnerships and leadership and build the infrastructure needed to connect Canadian critical minerals to global markets and diversify global trade.
Canada has what the world wants and is acting with urgency to unlock the full potential of its critical minerals by building major projects quickly and responsibly in order to create a prosperous, secure future. In a more competitive and uncertain world, Canada is ready to lead as a stable and reliable supplier of the mineral resources that power clean energy, advanced manufacturing and defence.
