With the latest EV battery materials facility announcement by Ford Motor Company (NYSE: F) and South Korean companies EcoPro BM Co. and SK On Co., it would appear Quebec is pushing hard to be a global competitor in the EV supply chain. Granted it was probably a pretty easy decision for Ford and its partners given the Federal and Provincial governments are investing a combined C$644 million of the estimated C$1.2 billion cost of the project. However, that should likely give a leg up for any critical material miners in Quebec who suddenly find themselves on the doorstep of a burgeoning EV battery hub in Bécancour.
