Testimonials
"Canada's Semiconductor Council will play an important role in boosting exports and increasing Canada's competitiveness in both traditional and innovative sectors. While we work towards a strong economic recovery, we also want to ensure Canada's long-term economic competitiveness and growth. To do this, we recognize the importance of investing in our domestic semiconductor industry, which is key to so many technologies at the heart of our future economy—from artificial intelligence to quantum computing to green energy to everything in between."
The Hon. Mary Ng
Minister of Export Promotion, International Trade and Economic Development
“Semiconductors are integral to our daily lives, powering everything from our phones to our cars and appliances. The dedicated efforts of Canada's Semiconductor Council to accelerate the growth of our semiconductor sector are vital for building a stronger economy. Because, when we invest in semiconductor technologies, we invest in economic security and we place Canada as a global leader in this sector."
The Hon. François-Philippe Champagne
Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry
“Canada has a choice to make: we either seize the incredible opportunity before us, or stick with a status quo that's no longer working. When it comes to building an innovative, nationally integrated tech ecosystem with the potential to bring in significant investments and create transformational careers for a new generation of Canadians, you need to think big. In the ultra competitive and critical semiconductor sector, nobody is going to invite us to the table—we need to be bold and own the podium.”
