Time to invade. After all what yours is ours. I wish I was joking.

We know and that’s why we’re getting a citizen army of 300,000 and we’ll party like it’s 1812 part two electric boogaloo.

Wasn't the last time a Canadian company discovered an "inexhaustable supply" of some mineral it was a gold scam that was one of the biggest mining industry scams in history that scammed people out of their pensions?

Please, I would like to see chain-of-custody third party samples before jumping to conclusions.

I am sure you are thinking of BreX.

Other than Canadian investors and mining as a general theme, I cannot think of a single reason to link the two stories.

Also, BreX never claimed “inexhaustible” anything and was certainly not “the last time” for anything either.

Canada has more mining companies and mining investment than any country in the world. These kinds of discoveries are common-place. There have been many, many discoveries and success stories in the decades since BreX.

And this is just another Lithium deposit. Not the biggest in the world and probably not even the biggest in the James Bay district.

BreX deposit was in Indonesia.

The article itself has many caveats. I wouldn't pay too much attention to an attention-grabbing headline.

I wonder if Elon will call for couping Canada to gain access to it.

Tragically, he is a citizen. He can just walk in and do whatever the hell he wants.
