Olivier Grondin
CHAIRMAN, AEMQ
"At AEMQ, our primary focus is advocating for regulatory reforms to simplify the legislation, eliminate redundancies, and accelerate administrative and approval processes."
Tim Houston
PREMIER, NOVA SCOTIA
"It is clear that some parts of Canada have been developing their natural resources, while others have not. Nova Scotia has been among the latter. It is time for us to step up, and I am trying to lead Nova Scotia in that direction."
Randy Smallwood
PRESIDENT AND CEO, WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS
"Over the next five years, we expect to grow by around 40%, with production to increase from 635,000 oz/y AuEq this year to about 870,000 oz/y AuEq by 2029."
Amyot Choquette
SENIOR DIRECTOR - INVESTMENTS NATURAL RESOURCES, INVESTISSEMENT QUÉBEC
"Our focus is on maximizing value-added projects within an integrated Québec-based critical mineral and battery value chain."
Marco Prud’homme
PRESIDENT, NOLINOR AVIATION
"As several carriers have been acquired by hedge funds or large corporations, Nolinor remains one of the few independent operators in northern Canada."
Mathieu Dionne
CEO, DIAFOR
"I view automation primarily as a tool to enhance quality and safety, rather than as a substitute for skilled personnel. Drilling, in my view, is an art – and it requires professionals mastering that art."
Simon Ridgway
CHAIRMAN, GOLD GROUP MANAGEMENT, CEO, VOLCANIC GOLD MINES AND CEO, RACKLA METALS
"The economic argument for mining in the region has never been so strong. Central America is mostly untapped and has great geology, so the odds of making a discovery are still very high."
Chris Dougherty
PRESIDENT AND CHAIRMAN, NORDMIN ENGINEERING
"Given the industry’s challenges, including cost increases and procurement delays, working as a team is essential."
Tim Bremner
CEO, FORACO INTERNATIONAL
"There is no question that automation and remote-controlled drill rig operations are resulting in safer operations and a better working environment for field crews."
Lesley Warren and Sebastian Goodfellow
DIRECTOR, MINING FUTURES INITIATIVE (LW) AND ASSOCIATE CHAIR, PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS, DEPARTMENT OF CIVIL & MINERAL ENGINEERING (SG), UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO
"U of T Mining focuses on innovative solutions to extract, process, and reuse resources as sustainably as possible, as well as a robust and diversified talent pipeline that can support sector transformation."
