We should not mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy.&#8221; Then, stopping short of an apology, he acknowledged the fiction at the center of the globalist dream: &#8220;We knew the story of the international rules-based order was partially false.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">From Globalization to Strategic Fragmentation<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Coming from anyone else, this might sound like pessimism. Coming from Carney\u2014the former central banker who spent decades architecting the very rules-based order he was eulogizing\u2014it lands differently. Here&#8217;s what investors like you and I need to understand: the era of benign globalization, where economic integration would inevitably produce political harmony, is over. Supply chains are now weapons. Tariffs are leverage. The pleasant fiction has ended.<\/p>\n<p>And the opportunity for investors has never been greater.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>The Pivot From Bits to Atoms<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As we wrote in our Cold War 2.0 missive (<a href=\"https:\/\/bigmail.wellington-altus.ca\/t\/c\/105049e5-32d1-46ce-ab20-7db4c212ba05\/00000000-0000-4000-8000-000000000001\">read it here<\/a>), for twenty years, the West outsourced the physical economy while retaining dominance in the digital.

Suddenly, the countries with the rocks\u2014the actual physical materials that power electrification, that build defense systems, that enable the AI revolution\u2014possess something that software alone cannot provide: strategic autonomy.<\/p>\n<p>And Canada? Canada has the rocks.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\"><strong>The Copper Thesis: Why Investors Should Care<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Consider copper\u2014the metal of electrification. Every EV requires 53 kilograms of copper versus 23 kg in a conventional car. Every data center powering AI, every grid upgrade enabling renewables, every defense system runs on copper wire. Demand is projected to rise from 27 million tons today toward 33 million tons annually as electrification accelerates.<\/p>\n<p>Yet supply cannot keep pace. Major mine disruptions\u2014Grasberg in Indonesia, El Teniente in Chile\u2014tightened markets sharply in 2025. Copper finished the year up nearly 40%, its best performance since 2009. J.P. Morgan forecasts prices reaching $12,500 per metric ton by mid-2026. Goldman Sachs sees structural deficits emerging by 2029, with prices potentially reaching $15,000 per ton by 2035. BloombergNEF warns the shortfall could reach 19 million tons over the next 25 years without massive new investment.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3556\" src=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-3.png\" alt=\"Infographic\" width=\"839\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-3.png 839w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-3-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-3-768x427.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 839px) 100vw, 839px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">China&#8217;s Refining Chokehold<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s the chokehold that creates Canada&#8217;s opportunity: China mines only about 8% of global copper but controls over 45% of global refining capacity\u2014and nearly 60% of consumption. Half of the world&#8217;s largest copper refineries sit in China. The West digs the ore but ships it to a strategic rival for processing. We are Britain in 1914, dependent on foreign smelters for the materials of our own industrial base.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Canada&#8217;s Copper Project Pipeline<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Breaking China&#8217;s chokehold requires building at home. The good news: we are finally building.<\/p>\n<p>In British Columbia&#8217;s Golden Triangle and the Yukon, a pipeline of world-class copper projects is advancing that represents over $20 billion in capital investment:<\/p>\n<p><strong>KSM<\/strong> (Seabridge Gold) is now &#8220;substantially started&#8221;\u2014securing its environmental permits indefinitely.

Zero. The economics of railing concentrate across the continent to Quebec are prohibitive, so miners truck their ore to Pacific ports and ship it to Asia. We feed the very supply chain we claim to be breaking\u2014what I&#8217;ve called the &#8220;Zinc Trap.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Those who think Canada shouldn&#8217;t embrace its resource extraction expertise are like the new CEO of grocery store announcing he&#8217;d like to exit the grocery business because margins are low. Our comparative advantage is literally in the ground beneath our feet. The question is whether we&#8217;ll develop it or apologize for it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3558\" src=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-5.png\" alt=\"Infographic\" width=\"836\" height=\"470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-5.png 836w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-5-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-5-768x432.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 836px) 100vw, 836px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Green Copper and Canada&#8217;s Competitive Advantage<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The federal and provincial governments have finally recognized this. In December, Ottawa and Victoria launched a Request for Information for a Western Canadian copper smelter\u2014a $2.5 to $3.5 billion facility that would close the supply chain loop. Better still, Canada possesses a unique competitive advantage: BC&#8217;s grid is 98% hydroelectric. A Canadian smelter would produce &#8220;Green Copper&#8221;\u2014verified low-carbon metal commanding premium pricing as manufacturers race to meet emissions targets. Clean and secure. That&#8217;s the Canadian value proposition.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">From Political Words to Industrial Work<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Carney gets this. &#8220;Canada has what the world wants,&#8221; he told Davos. &#8220;We are an energy superpower. We have the most educated population in the world. We have capital, talent, and a government with the immense fiscal capacity to act decisively.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>These are the right words. Electrifying words.<\/p>\n<p>But words don&#8217;t smelt copper. Words don&#8217;t build mines.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Why the Reindustrialization of Canada is Inevitable<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what Carney knows: America cannot decarbonize or rearm without Canadian materials. And Canada has treaty obligations with the US (USMCA and Defense Production Sharing Act) that limit us in ways and require us to attend to the needs of the continent we share with the hegemon.\u00a0 We shouldn&#8217;t pretend otherwise. The Western Alliance needs a secure supply node outside Beijing&#8217;s leverage. We can be that node\u2014the keystone connecting American technological demand with the atoms that make technology physical.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3559\" src=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-6.png\" alt=\"Copper infographic\" width=\"839\" height=\"468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-6.png 839w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-6-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/advisor.wellington-altus.ca\/evansfamilywealth\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2026\/01\/Jan-26-Photo-6-768x428.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 839px) 100vw, 839px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>What we need now are premiers, advocates, and investors who understand that the &#8220;Re-Industrialization of Canada&#8221; is not a slogan but a strategic imperative backed by trillions in forced demand.<\/p>\n<p>Briana and I are absolutely convinced that Canada&#8217;s brightest days are ahead of it\u2014powered by electricity conducted by Canadian-smelted copper and generated by Canadian nuclear, renewable and oil gas production.
