Description

Ontario is virtually unique in the world. Thanks to plentiful natural resources, clean energy and a large automotive sector, it has every stage in the EV supply chain right here at home. In theory, the province could mine the metals, make the batteries, produce the steel and assemble the electric car entirely in the province. But to plot a way to a more prosperous and environmentally responsible future, we need to look at our past. That's why we headed to Cobalt, one of Ontario's biggest mining boom towns, where great wealth was hauled out of the ground for more than a century, and now, very little remains. We met up with Charlie Angus, the local MP, former punk rocker, journalist and amateur historian.
