Alberta’s Lithium Leap for North America

Premier Danielle Smith is rallying Alberta’s future around lithium and trade, declaring critical minerals as the engine for North American economic unity at a pivotal summit. With CUSMA’s renewal deadline looming, she warns tariffs harm both economies and champions free trade as the bedrock of prosperity. Alberta, home to some of the world’s largest lithium reserves, is positioning itself as a mineral powerhouse — leasing land for exploration and building rail links to Mexico to turn raw resources into global value. Amid global uncertainty, Smith’s vision is clear: Alberta isn’t just exporting minerals — it’s becoming a strategic trade partner for the next generation of North America.
