Umicore Groundbreaking

Groundbreaking Day for the EV Revolution in Ontario!

Proud to join Premier FordNation, Minister FIdeli, Mayor Hegadorn, and Chief Maracle at the cornerstone event for Umicore’s state-of-the-art plant in Loyalist Township.

With Umicore’s forward-thinking facility:

• We’ll see an upsurge in production for EV battery components.

• 600 new jobs will be directly created, alongside 700 co-op opportunities for students.

This significant investment is more than just numbers – it’s a step towards a greener future, affirming Ontario’s key role in the global EV market. We’re leveraging our domestic resources for a near carbon-neutral output.
