B.C. minister says Rio Tinto confident it will find non-U. S. aluminum buyers

B.C. Premier David Eby urged the federal government to respond to the U.S. Tariffs on Canadian-made steel and aluminum, stating that Canada will not 'roll over' on this issue.
British Columbia's Mines Minister Jagrup Brar expressed confidence that the aluminum sector will find new buyers outside the U.S. As tariffs on Canadian exports threaten market access.
Eby noted that the recent tariff friction with the United States would fundamentally change the way Canadians approached trade with their southern neighbors, emphasizing the negative impact on families and businesses.
The B.C. Government is fast-tracking 18 critical mineral projects to support local businesses in adapting to potential tariffs, highlighting a strategy to diversify trade.
