Great! Let’s sell this off to multinationals ASAP so we can accelerate pillaging the land without consultation, outsource the jobs and ensure the fewest Canadians benefit from the windfall.

USA:

It’s funny cause it’s true. Trump wants to invade Greenland and Canada; it’s not just because he’s a piece of shit dictator. He’s after resources for his cronies.

It’s trickle out economics.

And it belongs to the people of Canada. Right?

Time to invade. After all what yours is ours. I wish I was joking.

Let’s sell this off to multinationals ASAP so we can accelerate pillaging the land without consultation, outsource the jobs and ensure the fewest Canadians benefit from the windfall.

Ah! Someone who’s familiar with Alberta oil & gas extraction.

…AND BC lumber, AND Ontario steel, AND maritime fish, AND everybodies’ water and minerals, etcetc

I call it “outsourcing profits”.

We have significant lithium mines in Australia, we produce the most lithium in the world presently. Zero child or slave labour.

You mean…the 51st state of 'Merica?

They won’t leave. It’s inexhaustible. Best learn to live with the pollution!

So extract all the value and give it to rich ppl while leaving everyone else to clean up the mess left behind?

I know there’s been lots of headlines in the past like OMG there’s not enough lithium! It’s never been true.

It’s one of the most abundant elements out there, it’s everywhere. It was always more about what reserves we knew about, but when what we knew about wasn’t going to be enough, people go looking, and it’s abundant.

Also the more uses there are for it, the more profitable it is to extract from these methods and the better we get at it, the cheaper it is to extract, which further opens up even more options.

I don’t actually remember any articles that claimed there were lithium shortages in that there isn’t enough on the planet, but rather that China is the only country with a working supply chain.

This shit really bothers me.

Wow that’s great for the people.

Well yes, 3 of them

Incoming reclassification of maple syrup as a WMD.

That’s a perfect description of Carney’s MO.

We know and that’s why we’re getting a citizen army of 300,000 and we’ll party like it’s 1812 part two electric boogaloo.

“This ‘syrup’ comprises a clear and present danger to the United States of America. Operation ‘Freedom Fries’ has been authorised!”

You’re showing your bias. That was Canada’s position well before Carney was on the scene.
