RE:Trudeau is making an old Soviet USSR Mistake!That sums up Trudeau pretty much. All these extreme left seem to have the same traits. The big problem with this administration is that there has been no sound government policies. Lot's of throwing money at things and virtue signalling and dividing people through identify politics but no sound policies.
As for their distastes for mines... I think its for environmental reasons.

Trudeau is giving Billions ot VW and Stellantis to build factories to build EV batteries. However, his critical minerals strategy to secure the minerals the factories need to produce those batteris is what? Pennies on the subsidy dollar!
Like I said, the USSR discovered that lamps are useless without light bulbs!
