Our plan for Canada’s mining future

The Canadian Minerals and Metals Plan (CMMP) is a milestone in Canada’s mining history. It includes a vision, principles, and strategic directions that governments, industry, and stakeholders can pursue to drive competitiveness and long-term success. This generational initiative will raise Canadians’ awareness of the importance of the minerals sector, respond to ongoing and emerging challenges, and help position Canada for opportunities offered by an evolving economy.
