Canada's only graphite miner faces uncertain future as it holds out hope of government financing
The head of Northern Graphite Corp. NGC-X is optimistic that Ottawa will provide a key part of a make-or-break financing package needed to keep North America's only graphite mine in operation. Security of supply for domestic critical minerals mines has rarely been a more urgent issue as Canada struggles with an entrenched trade war with the United States. Prime Minister Mark Carney has made developing domestic resource projects one of the biggest priorities for his government. Ottawa-based Northern Graphite operates the Lac des Îles graphite mine in Quebec. In operation since 1989, the existing pit is due to run out of ore before the end of the year. To extend the life of the mine into the 2030s, an investment of $10-million is urgently needed. Graphite, alongside lithium, cobalt and copper, is one of several critical minerals used in low-carbon energy and is a key input in the defence sector. Mr. Carney has repeatedly stressed that Canada must expand production of critical minerals in order to meet new NATO spending requirements, and a shutdown of the Quebec mine could weaken the country's ability to meet those commitments. New NATO target will require Canada to spend $150-billion annually on defence, Carney says Despite extensive talks with the public and private sector, Northern Graphite has been unable to raise new funding. With debt of US$40-million, and a cash position of only about $300,000, the company could also eventually be facing a liquidity crisis. Hugues Jacquemin, chief executive officer of Northern Graphite, said in an interview this week that while the current situation is alarming, he's hopeful the federal government will come through with a major piece of the financing, a step that would keep the mine in operation. 'They recognize how dire the situation is, and there's quite a strong sense of urgency from them to come and find a way to help us,' he said. 'So I'm quite confident that we'll get there.' Industry Minister Mélanie Joly, whose riding is in Quebec, is aware of the strategic importance of the asset. Last Friday, when asked in a press conference about the mine, she warned about the dangers of overreliance on one country in critical minerals. China dominates the production and refining of graphite worldwide and it has abused its position to stomp out foreign competition. Bloomberg News on Thursday reported that the U.S. Commerce Department was set to impose preliminary anti-dumping duties of 93.5 per cent on Chinese imports of graphite after concluding the Chinese were unfairly subsidizing the industry. Despite the need for Canada to diversify further away from China in graphite, it's unclear whether Ottawa will ultimately invest in the mine. When asked in an e-mail from The Globe and Mail whether the government will step in, a spokesperson for Ms. Joly did not provide a comment by Thursday afternoon. Even though its market capitalization is only about $18-million, and its shares trade for 14 cents apiece on the TSX Venture Exchange, Northern Graphite commands a high profile internationally. Last week, the company hosted an EU delegation that included Stéphane Séjourné, executive vice-president of the European Commission for Prosperity and Industrial Strategy. Remarking on his visit, Mr. Séjourné, in the same press conference that Ms. Joly participated in on Friday, stressed the importance of more co-operation between Canada and the EU in critical minerals. Northern Graphite primarily sells its graphite to U.S. industrial customers, who use the metal in a range of applications including brake pads, industrial lubricants, fuel cells and in defence applications such as the manufacturing of ammunition, cannons, missiles and in paint for fighter jets. Owing to the mine's proximity to its customer base and the quality of its product, the company is able to charge its customers up to three times as much as comparable Chinese producers. Despite all of these advantages, investors have been reluctant to put new money into the company. Part of the issue is that the U.S. industrial segment isn't a big market. But the bigger problem is that investors are unsure about whether the company can compete against China in the electric-battery market, a much bigger segment that Northern Graphite hopes to compete in. Opinion: Facing such fancy Chinese EVs, do Western carmakers even have a future? 'The Chinese have been so aggressive on their pricing that it seeds a lot of doubt in investors' minds whether graphite is a commodity they want to invest in,' Mr. Jacquemin said. 'What they're scared of is the geopolitical world changes, and then suddenly the Chinese flood the market with graphite at very low prices, and the mine is not able to make money.' Apart from operating the Quebec mine, Northern Graphite also owns a graphite mine in Namibia that is idle and which it hopes to eventually restart. It also has plans to build a processing plant in Europe that would see the company's EV capabilities expand exponentially. Toronto-based Sprott Resource Streaming and Royalty Corp. is the company's major debt creditor. Earlier in the year, Northern Graphite breached covenants on some of its debt and said it was working with Sprott to amend its debt package.

Montreal not required to pay back $1M to recycling company Ricova
Quebec's Court of Appeal has reversed a lower court's decision requiring the City of Montreal to reimburse $1 million to recycling company Ricova after the company failed to fulfill its contract with the borough of Côte-des-Neiges—Notre-Dame-de-Grâce (CDN-NDG) in 2017. The Court of Appeal's ruling on Wednesday centers on penalties the city imposed on the recycling giant for ending its contract to collect waste in the borough. Ricova Services Inc. obtained the contract after the city put out a call for tenders with incorrect data about the work that needed to be done — information that was soon after corrected but contributed to Ricova's inability to hold up its end of the agreement. Ricova filed a lawsuit in 2019, seeking reimbursement in the amount of $1,014,903 for penalties it claimed were "unlawfully collected" by the city after the company ended its agreement due to an inability to fulfill its obligations. A Quebec Superior Court judge ruled in 2024 that Montreal must reimburse Ricova because it had led the recycling company to think it would be released from its obligations once a new contract was awarded to a third-party company. In his testimony in the lower court proceedings, Ricova president and CEO Dominic Colubriale said Montreal was told the company would go out of business if it stayed in the contract. "The option to continue the contract wasn't really an option, because number one, we didn't have the trucks. Number two, we were going to go out of business," Colubriale said. Ricova terminated the agreement in 2018, citing losses Shortly after the city launched a call for tenders on March 27, 2017, it noticed that it had incorrectly entered only half of the average number of loads, doors and trucks in CDN-NDG, the ruling says. The city corrected the mistake on March 30. However, Sansfaçon found that Ricova placed a bid on a contract with the borough and calculated its pricing without taking into account the corrections. Ricova first struggled to meet demands in the borough in December 2017. The multinational company based on Montreal's South Shore drew ire for allowing recycling to pile up for weeks while having a contract to collect household waste and compost with many Montreal boroughs. By February 2018, the company submitted to Montreal a notice of termination of the agreement, citing a "considerable loss of revenue." "It is difficult for an SME (Small to Medium-sized Enterprise) to be able to endure such considerable losses in the long term," an excerpt of the notice reads. "We would certainly have liked to continue our services in the -- borough had it not been for these losses." In 2018, CDN-NDG had fined the company more than $60,000 for allowing recycling to accumulate on streets. 'Contractor had to bear the consequences,' says judge On Wednesday, Judge Stéphane Sansfaçon said in his decision that the City of Montreal "never gave Ricova a false sense of security " or led the company to believe that it would waive penalties for breaking the contract. "Given the previously stated conclusion that Ricova's mistake was inexcusable, the contractor had to bear the consequences," the ruling reads. The sum the city received represents the difference between the price in Ricova's bid and the price of the contract awarded to a third-party company. In 2022, the City of Montreal banned Ricova from bidding on future contracts after the city's inspector general issued a report in March of that year alleging the company did not pay Montreal about $1 million of recycling profits. Sansfaçon wrote that the expenses were justified because they "address the shortcomings in Ricova's execution of the contract." However, he ordered the City of Montreal to reimburse Ricova $8,8971.32 with interest and additional compensation after concluding that the company had "no other choice but to attempt to terminate the contract" to minimize future losses.

Complaints pile up against only agency providing Indian consular services in Canada
Every time Prashant Vashista thinks of BLS International — the sole company sanctioned by the Indian consulate to handle services like visas and passport renewals in Canada — his mind goes back two years to his mother's death. Grief-stricken, he drove an hour to BLS's Brampton location to arrange for emergency visas so he could see his family in India. Even though he picked up the visas himself, Vashista said employees demanded he pay a $45 courier fee for himself, his daughter and his wife, totalling $135. "I was in dire need. So I had to pay," he told CBC Toronto. It wasn't the first or last time BLS allegedly pushed him to pay for services he didn't need — and his experience isn't unique. CBC spoke with numerous people who described being pressured to pay extra charges at BLS, many of whom felt their ability to visit India or legally stay in Canada depended on it. Former employees at one BLS branch say they're not surprised, saying staff were encouraged to charge clients as much as possible and find minor errors in their forms or photos to sell services or reduce the backlog of applications. "I knew 100 per cent that we are wrong… and we are [over]charging the clients," said one former supervisor. BLS says it has reputation for 'service excellence' BLS has locations across the country that provide services like passport renewal, police criminal record checks, and Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI) cards, which function as lifelong visas. A quick web search reveals a trove of public Facebook posts, Reddit threads and online petitions — one of which has more than 7,000 signatures — created by frustrated BLS clients. The company has also been awarded an "F" rating by the Better Business Bureau. In response to CBC Toronto's questions about the complaints, BLS said the company has a "longstanding reputation for transparency, compliance, and service excellence." "We remain fully aligned with the standards and expectations of the governments and authorities we work alongside," BLS communications manager Pooja Arora wrote. "Where concerns are raised, we will always investigate them thoroughly and take appropriate steps to improve." For its part, the Consulate General of India in Toronto says it is committed to "prompt, efficient" service, adding that BLS International was selected "through a competitive bidding process." Client describes 'legalized plunder' During a visit to the Mississauga location in April, one client says his OCI application ran aground when staff pressed him for extra documents not mentioned on the BLS website and found minor issues with his photos and application forms. CBC Toronto has agreed to protect his identity because he fears repercussions from BLS during future visits. In a complaint he later sent to the company, he says staff used "scare tactics" to push him to pay for extra fees, called his wife "dumb" and threatened to blacklist him when he asked to see an itemized receipt before paying. Harpreet Hora, a lawyer based in Kenora, Ont., says he had similar experiences during two separate visits to Toronto BLS locations. "They forced me to take a courier service… which I had never asked for," he said. Though he later received refunds after complaining to both the company and the consulate, he described the ordeals as "obviously stressful" and "a sort of harassment." "You see that this is legalized plunder from people," Hora said, pointing out that few people have the time or patience to pursue refunds. Another client, Shivam Nehra of Oakville, says he was pressured to pay $100 for a "premium lounge service" to bypass the long lineups outside while he faced down a looming permanent residency application deadline. "I went there three to four times to get my documents corrected and every time, these guys will point out any different mistake," he said. The story on the inside It appears the situation wasn't better on the other side of the counter. Three former employees, all of whom worked in the Brampton location within the last five years, say they were kept on short-term contracts and felt pressured to find issues with applications or add extra charges. CBC Toronto has agreed to protect their identities over concerns about impacts to their careers. "You need to find a reason where you can take out money from a client," one said. "If you're not selling, you will be kicked off," they continued, describing internal staff competitions over who could sell the most services, with gift baskets going to the winners. With little guidance on official standards, reasons to reject applications could be as minor as a missing comma or writing "ave." instead of "avenue" on a form. They also said some mistakes were unavoidable because of how the company's own online application forms were formatted. Two employees also said they would push unwilling clients to use their courier service and charge families multiple times, despite deliveries going to the same address. 'I know what you're doing' The same employee who described looking for misplaced commas said they ultimately left the company because they were disturbed by having to lie to clients they often sympathized with. "There are students who are doing their applications for their permanent residency, not having jobs… or getting minimum wage, but still BLS is charging them like two or three hundred dollars [for] a thing which could be done [for] $40." All three also say they eventually found themselves returning to BLS for services, where they or their families were charged for add-ons they didn't want. "I was like, 'Man, I have worked at this location and I know what you're doing,'" the same employee recalled telling a Brampton staff member, who charged them an unnecessary courier fee, which they say they had "no choice" but to pay. The search for accountability As a private company contracted by a non-Canadian consulate in Canada, BLS operates outside of the purview of any federal or provincial immigration ministry. Global Affairs Canada says that while it authorizes "the establishment of consular posts," it has no authority over a company contracted by a foreign state, recommending instead that people with issues reach out to their local consumer protection office, or, in the event of a criminal complaint, the police. Consumer Protection Ontario, meanwhile, says it has received just one complaint related to BLS International in the last three years, but declined to comment on the outcome. The only body with authority to fire or discipline BLS is the Consulate General of India, who said in a statement to CBC Toronto that "every effort is being made — including through internal reviews, coordination with BLS, and process improvements — to ensure that service standards continuously improve." Former client Harpreet Hora isn't so sure. For the last three years, he's found himself researching BLS, including several right-to-information requests with the Indian government over how many complaints they've received about the company. "Much to my surprise, the Indian consulate says they do not have data of this," he said. The consulate did not comment on Hora's claim that it had no data on complaints, when asked by CBC Toronto. "I feel cheated by the Indian consulate," said Hora. "Reason being… I'm making complaints to you, and you're not taking action."
