TORONTO, Dec 8 (Reuters) – Canadian Finance Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne chaired a virtual meeting of G7 finance ministers on Monday to discuss export controls and critical minerals, the finance ministry said in a statement.
“An important point of consensus was the concern regarding the application of non-market policies, including export controls, to critical minerals supply chains, citing significant negative macroeconomic consequences, increased price volatility, and a deterioration in global growth prospects,” the ministry said.
