Trevor has worked for Kaytec for 26 years.¹ He was recently given a layoff notice because this siding company is closing shop.² Slow housing starts and tariffs mean that the work simply is not there, and Trevor is not alone. I am hearing from Canadians from coast to coast to coast who are worried about how they will pay their bills, put food on the table and fill up their tanks. Our economy is struggling, our construction sector is hurting and Canadians are paying the price.
