2004, through RED, we have invested close to C$70 million in Quebec's Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region. The RED team continues to support the economy of many businesses in the region, including the economic activities of the Innu Indigenous community of Mashteuiatsh.</p> <h3>We invest in Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean in other ways</h3> <p>For example, the Rio Tinto Aluminium Canada Fund contributes to the region's non-profit organisations in 5 areas: First Nations, education, environment, health and well-being, and community. We partner with <a title="Opens in new window" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_5BDauEVHY" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">AlloProf</a> to improve education in communities across Québec, an initiative that offers interactive study sessions to 400,000 students in the province. And CRÉPAS (Conseil régional de prévention de l'abandon scolaire du Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean), which the Fund also supports, works with teachers and educators to help young people throughout their journey to graduation.</p> <p>Our business also plays an important role in the region’s economy. For example, we are investing C$250 million to extend the life of our Vaudreuil refinery, using industry-leading filter press technology and dry stacking to ensure it can continue to supply our aluminium smelting operations, support more than 1,000 jobs and generate significant economic benefits for the region. At our Arvida smelter, we are extending operations beyond 2020 with an <a href="/en/news/releases/2018/quebec-government-partnership-strengthened">investment of C$200 million</a>. And at Alma, we are investing C$209 million to better position it to meet the demands of the future.</p></div> </div> </div> <div class="component component rt-component rt-5050 scheme-purple"> <div class="component-content" > <div class="rt-5050__cols"> <div class="rt-5050__col rt-5050__col-left"> <div class="rt-5050-image"> <div class="splide"> <div class="splide__track"> <ul class="splide__list"> <li class="splide__slide"> <img src="https://cdn-rio.dataweavers.io/-/media/content/images/operations/saguenay/letenda.jpg?rev=1c958467b9aa4aed8e69ad15d6442cf3" alt="wave" /> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="rt-5050__col rt-5050__col-right"> <div class="rt-5050-content"> <div class="rt-section-heading"> <h2 class="rt-section-heading-title">Helping small businesses grow</h2> <p class="rt-emphasis-text rt-section-heading-subtitle"><h5>Quebec</h5></p> </div> <div class="rt-section-copy"> <div class="rt-rte"> <p>In Quebec, we have invested $650,000 to help Letenda grow, an organisation focusing on sustainable public transport solutions.</p> <p>Since 2017, Rio Tinto’s RED team has been a proud partner of Letenda.

The lake is an important part of the lifestyle for the communities in the region, particularly for the 5,000 people living along the shoreline. The lake is a popular tourist attraction and it’s also one of our 3 reservoirs that we use to produce hydropower to operate our smelters.</p> <p>Unfortunately, the shoreline has experienced erosion problems for some time, caused by increasing water levels combined with wind and waves. In response to these problems, the Shoreline Stabilization Program was created in 1986 with sustainable development at the heart of its mission. For more than 30 years, we have been working to mitigate erosion, taking into account environmental, social, technical and economic aspects. As of 2018, the program includes a Sustainable Management Council where the different users of lake Saint-Jean come together to collaborate on solving the problems facing the lake. As part of this Council, we are committed to working closely with the First Nations Mashteuiatsh, local government, and community representatives such as environment organisations to protect and restore the shoreline. </p></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="rt-content-toggle__panel "> <div class="component content rich-text"> <div class="component-content"> <div class="field-content"><p>The wind is turning between the Pekuakamiulnuatsh First Nation and Rio Tinto: A positive relationship has existed between Pekuakamiulnuatsh and Rio Tinto for over 30 years.
