Ontario Welcomes $207 Million Investment in the Advanced Manufacturing Sector

September 19, 2025

Ontario’s manufacturing sector is the economic engine of our nation, accounting for over 800,000 good-paying jobs across the province.

At a time when U.S. tariffs are taking direct aim at Canada’s leading industries, Northern Transformer Corporation’s investment is a reflection of the competitiveness and resilience of the province’s economy and workers.

Once operational, NTC’s new facility will manufacture and test high-voltage transformers with power handling capabilities critical to supporting large-scale industrial projects, including data centres, mining operations and steel manufacturing.

As part of the government’s plan to protect Ontario, NTC’s facility will create over a hundred new jobs, unlock new opportunities for Ontario-based suppliers and manufacturers and expand the energy infrastructure the province needs power the most competitive economy in the G7.

By leveraging the strength of our secure, domestic supply chains and investing in the infrastructure our industries need to meet the energy demands of the day, the government is protecting Ontario and its workers for generations to come.
