KAMLOOPS — The BC Hydro and Power Authority will receive up to $50 million to help extend the life of a copper mine near Kamloops.
The funding is part of the federal government’s $100-million investment into five B.C.- based projects aimed at boosting critical mineral development within the province.
“British Columbia has world–class minerals, clean power and strong Indigenous leadership, and we are turning our critical mineral advantage into action,” said Randeep Sarai, secretary of state for international development.
“Today’s investments are strengthening transmission, supporting Indigenous communities and unlocking major projects across the province. This is about creating good jobs and opportunity for British Columbians while securing Canada’s place as a leader in the global clean-energy economy.”
