Securing Supply Through Shared Values
The Canada-Germany Critical Minerals Partnership
The German Canadian Critical Minerals Partnership places shared liberal democratic values at the centre of resource security. Canada has invaluable reserves of the critical minerals Germany requires, while Germany offers the investment capacity and market demand to develop Canadian potential. Together, both middle powers can reduce their reliance on authoritarian suppliers and, conceivably, the West’s more broadly. This collaboration is also testament to Canada’s broader strategic pivot toward Europe on defence and security matters.
