Quebec Premier Pauline Marois said her government will meet mining companies in the next three months to gather input as it seeks to raise royalty taxes on mining to help Canada’s most indebted province generate revenue.
“We will have a discussion probably in February or March” with mining companies, Marois said yesterday in an interview at Bloomberg’s headquarters in New York. “We want to raise more revenues from royalties, but we don’t want to kill the industry.”
