Western Ontario is an energy powerhouse.
At the @wowcinc, @samoosterhoff and I outlined our commitment to building reliable energy infrastructure to power families, farms, and businesses.
We are on a mission to build big across rural Ontario — including the Bruce C project that will create over 10,000 jobs, with 95% of investment staying in Canada.
Leaving a living legacy with Kleinburg families, @TRCA_HQ, and the volunteer team at @TD_Canada.
Solid hustle with over 300 trees planted today alone! 🌳
Learning how to be strong in body and mind at Maple Jiu-Jitsu
These students show us all that giving up is never an option.
Looking forward to joining you for a class and roll 🥋
We landed a nearly half billion dollar investment in Ontario's manufacturing supply chain as we add the equivalent of four cities of Toronto to the grid.
Ontario's Integrated Energy Plan is providing long-term certainty to investors as they establish operations and build more in Ontario.

Hitachi announces $479M plan to build transformer insulation factory in London, Ont. ctvnews.ca/london/article/hi…
Productive meeting with @Telesat CEO Daniel Goldberg on strengthening Canada's satellite capabilities, expanding domestic manufacturing and connecting more Ontario communities to high-speed internet.
Telesat's network will be the first of its kind built outside the United States, giving Canada its own satellite internet.
We discussed the opportunity to advance an affordable Made-in-Canada solution, as Ontario makes real progress with 96% of the province already connected.

Ontario is helping shape the future of nuclear energy in Canada and beyond.
Great to see @washingtonpost Intelligence recognize Ontario’s first-mover advantage in SMR deployment.
Credit to Minister @Sflecce for his leadership and to @opg for turning ambition into action.

A massive signal of confidence as @hitachienergy invests $479 million to build Canada's largest transformer insulation facility.
Ontario's 25-year energy road map is providing long-term certainty, creating the conditions for companies to localize manufacturing to build to meet Ontario's rising energy demand.
In short, a plan to manufacture more at home, built by and for Canadians.
Investing in a skilled trades pipeline is helping to fill 150,000 new jobs as we deliver North America's largest nuclear buildout.
Ontario's investment in our people is an investment in a stronger and more competitive economy.
Ontario’s future will be built by skilled workers.
Under Premier Ford’s leadership, we’re committing $2.5 billion to skills training, creating more pathways to rewarding careers and keeping our industries competitive.

Great to join Minister @Sflecce and Minister @ToddJMcCarthy for an important discussion on Ontario’s energy future and growing our mining sector. ⚡⛏️
Ontario has the resources, skilled workforce, and clean energy advantage to become a global hub for mining, advanced manufacturing, and energy-intensive industries.
Our government is focused on strengthening Ontario’s competitive advantage, supporting industry expansion, and ensuring businesses have the energy they need to grow and succeed. 🇨🇦
Appreciate the partnership between @Bruce_Power and Ontario Corp — leveraging Bruce's world-class workforce, advanced technology, and dedication to safety.
Great to see @JillDunlop1 creating a network of partners and dedicated volunteers ready to respond to protect Ontario families at a moment’s notice.

Ontario and Canada will emerge more sovereign and economically independent by supercharging approvals for new and expanded mines.
While we have massively reduced permit timelines, we know there is more work to do — a challenge function to move even faster in the moment.
That was the focus of the Minister’s Mining Industry Council meeting — discussing new reforms to accelerate responsible resource development with @ToddJMcCarthy and @Rae_Matt.

Productive and constructive roundtable with @BarrieChamber and tour of Raptor Mining with @Andrea_Khanjin and @davidsmithmpp.
Ontario's energy plan is ambitious, as we lead the largest nuclear expansion on the continent, creating 150,000 new jobs, along with an accelerated permitting system to build mines even faster.
It was incredible to visit Raptor Mining to see how our mining expansion in the north is driving manufacturing growth and creating good-paying jobs across Barrie and Innisfil.

Ontario is a global energy superpower. And we’re just getting started.🙌
We can no longer rely on the U.S. for our prosperity or our security. That’s why we’re securing Canada’s energy sovereignty by building new nuclear, the largest battery storage fleet in the country and the transmission to connect it all.
Reliable power. Stronger communities. More jobs for Ontario workers.💪⚡️

That’s a wrap on the 2026 Ontario Energy Conference!
We’re closing out the conference with our Gala Keynote Address by the Hon. Stephen Lecce, Ontario Minister of Energy & Mines.
Thank you to our speakers, delegates, and partners for being part of this year’s event!

Following my recent tour of Canada's largest gold mine at Detour Lake, I met with @agnicoeagle to discuss their $14 billion investment plan for Ontario.
An investment anchored in confidence in Ontario's accelerated permitting regime that is attracting job-creating investment.
More Canadian mining, more good-paying jobs, and a stronger Canadian economy 🇨🇦

Canadian sovereignty depends on Canadian energy sovereignty. That’s the message I delivered this morning at the Ontario Energy Conference, where I spoke about our plan to build and expand nuclear energy and build the Northern Shield Energy Corridor along an all-Canadian route from Alberta to Ontario.
Giving thanks to the most generous community and supportive families.
Canada’s largest community-led walk/run raised well over $2 million for York Region’s first residential dementia respite care centre, in Maple.
Always impressed — congrats to the team @strides4seniors.
