“Canada's steel crisis is hurting other businesses now. Stelco is laying off workers, so a manufacturer in my community cannot get the steel it needs. It will lose customers and jobs. What will the Prime Minister do to keep these businesses open and save these jobs?”
“Mr. Speaker, the damage from Canada’s steel crisis is not stopping at the steel mill. Stelco is idling its coating lines and laying off workers, and the downstream industry is taking a hit. A stamping manufacturer in my community of Cambridge bought its steel from Stelco for years. Now that the supply is gone, it is not able to source what it needs. It will lose its contracts and customers because it cannot get its steel in time. That is more jobs that will be gone for good. What is the Prime Minister going to do to keep these businesses open and Canadians working?”
