 Aujourd'hui, on est ici pour parler d'un projet de collaboration avec Nokia qui a pour but de faire progresser la recherche et le développement pour la technologie 5G. Les réseaux sans fil 5G Roux jouent un rôle essentiel dans plusieurs aspects de notre vie comme le travail, les achats qu'on fait en ligne et les communications avec nos proches. Des réseaux efficaces, c'est aussi important si on veut faire du progrès dans les secteurs comme les technologies propres, la médecine et l'agriculture. L'avenir vert, l'avenir de l'économie du savoir, ça se passe pas sans numérique, sans la connectivité que Nokia et d'autres sont en train de faire. This is an exciting announcement that will help us advance 5G technology. This project is about innovative tech research and development happening right here in Canada and creating new opportunities including for our talented young people. But more specifically, this is a project that would build a world-class R&D hub that will transform the wireless technologies we rely on every day. This project will help build a stronger future for Canadians and that's why our government is here today to help it move forward. Notre gouvernement est en train de bâtir une économie forte et compétitive pour l'avenir et on continue de mettre les Canadiens au coeur de tout ce qu'on fait pour créer de bons emplois. By investing in this new technology, we're helping to deliver the technologies Canadians expect in a world of fast-paced change. We're also creating opportunities across the tech sector in Canada. Not only will it make us more connected, but this project is expected to create more than 340 good jobs in this high-paying and fast-growing sector. It'll also increase co-op and internship opportunities for post-secondary students. As Pekka was saying earlier, for about every fourth workstation here, there is an intern here learning and growing and that commitment to developing the workforce of tomorrow and ensuring diversity in that workforce as well including bringing in almost 50% women in their internships is really, really important, not just for the fairer, more equitable society we're building, but for the excellence of the products and the research that is done. By advancing Canada's 5G capabilities, this will help add real value to our economy because 5G has the potential to add $40 billion to our economy every year by 2026. This fits in to a series of announcements we've been making over the past year. It started in the spring, François-Philippe and I. Doug was there as well at Stellantis and some other auto sectors talking about electric vehicles, talking about the battery supply chain. We were just last week at Rio Tinto in Sorrel, Quebec, talking about the important investments in a green supply chain around the critical minerals that are needed for the auto industry. I was just on Friday or Thursday in Hamilton, meeting with DeFasco, where investments in the province and the federal government are making and moving off of coal is not just going to clean our environment, clean our air, but make sure that Canada and the green steel produced in Canada is continuing to be globally competitive and that Canada indeed will lead the world in the production of cleaner, more high-quality processes that the auto industry here, but industries around the world need to a much larger degree. At the end of the summer we welcomed Olaf Scholz to Newfoundland to talk about the hydrogen economy that's being built in Canada. As Canada develops the industry to be the provider of energy to a net zero world in the coming decades. Canada is remarkably well positioned for that in a really key way. But of course none of those advanced technologies, none of that happens without the kind of connectivity that we're here talking about today. And it's not just the high tech sectors, it's not just hydrogen production and just in time EV manufacturing that needs that instant connectivity. On Friday I was in a farm, on a farm just outside of Kitchener. And the level of technology that goes into it, from monitors on every dairy cow to make sure that their heart rate, their chewing rate, their location is covered to see what stage they're at to be able to measure exactly how much fertilizer is going where on the field using geolocation. The need to connect everything from maximum efficiency, from maximum productivity and from maximum beneficial impact, minimizing waste, minimizing excess energy is going to be the key to moving forward. So Canada is a country with extraordinary natural resources and advances on critical minerals and energy are things that the world is going to need right now because we're doing it environmentally, because we're doing it sustainably, because we're doing it with a high quality of labor standards and quality of life for workers. And that's a key differentiator from places around the world. But on top of that Canada's advances in communications and digital technology, our advances in world leadership on AI are moves forward on quantum technologies. These are all the things and the connectivity that you get from 5G and eventually 6G is happening right here in Canada. Nokia is here today because the work that Canadians have been doing over decades, but particularly over the past number of years is positioning us to be a world leader in all the things that the globe is going to need and value in the coming years. That's why this announcement matters. That's why Canadians are coming together with an incredibly optimistic view of the future, despite the very real challenges of the world that positions Canada in an extraordinarily propitious way for the coming years. Donc aujourd'hui c'est un autre exemple du travail qu'on fait pour stimuler les investissements dans l'ensemble de l'économie et s'assurer que tous les Canadiens en profitent. Companies like Nokia keep investing in Canada because they know we have the talent and forward-looking vision that they're looking for. We're excited to see all the potential they'll bring forward with this project and we'll keep working to create and attract well-paying middle-class jobs across the country while we build an economy that works for all Canadians. Merci beaucoup tout le monde.
