Accelerate congratulates Mark Carney on his election as Leader of the Liberal Party of Canada. Amid unprecedented threats to our economy, this is a pivotal time to be taking on the role of Prime Minister.
The recent and drastic shift in political and trade positioning in the United States puts our economy at risk and jeopardizes the advancements we have made in clean economy sectors such as zero emission vehicles.
To counter this, Canada must continue capturing the economic and job creating opportunities that accompany robust growth in our strategic critical mineral and material, battery and advanced manufacturing sectors.
We look forward to continuing to work with all federal and provincial leaders to build employment and wealth opportunities for Canadians through our domestic zero-emission vehicle industry.
