Quebec's government is actively repositioning its economy away from US dependence by deepening ties with Europe, leveraging its critical mineral resources (lithium, graphite) and shared cultural bonds to build alternative supply chain partnerships amid Trump tariffs and Chinese export controls.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Semiconductors, Clean Energy and Supply Chain.

◆ The Wire takeaway

If you sell or buy critical minerals, graphite, or lithium, Quebec just became an alternative to Chinese supply chains—and has political will to cut deals with European buyers fast. The tariff war just opened a new sourcing geography for your supply chain.
