“The industry minister promised to sue Stellantis and Stelco to get jobs back, but she has not sued either company or saved any jobs. I want her to stop talking and deliver real results for workers.”

“Mr. Speaker, 10 months ago, the industry minister promised that she was going to sue Stellantis and get the jobs back. Did she sue? No. Did she get the jobs back? No. Guess what. The industry minister is now saying that she is going to sue Stelco and get the jobs back. Has she sued? No. Has she got the jobs back? No. When will the minister stop the talk and get results? Does her word to workers actually mean anything?”

“The minister did not say if she will sue over American tariffs. It is the government's job to do something about this. I want a yes or no answer: will she sue after her 15-day notice ends?”

“Mr. Speaker, did the minister say anywhere in that answer that she was really going to sue? No. It is all talk and no results with the Liberals. She went on a diatribe about a whole bunch of things that the opposition should do in the face of American tariffs. Here is news for the minister: They are the government. They are the one who are supposed to do something about it. I will go back to this: Does the minister’s word actually mean anything? At the expiration of her second 15-day notice, will she sue, yes or no?”

“Stelco is cutting 350 steel jobs in Hamilton. Conservatives have a five-point plan to save steel jobs: get a trade deal with the U.S., stop illegal steel dumping, end the industrial carbon tax, approve gas projects, and sue Cleveland-Cliffs. Which of these five things has the government done?”

“Mr. Speaker, it has been a month since Stelco announced that 350 Hamilton steelworkers would lose their jobs. Here is the Conservative five-point plan to protect the steel industry and its workers: get a steel deal with the U.S., which the Prime Minister promised a year and a half ago; end illegal foreign steel dumping; get rid of the industrial carbon tax; pre-approve multiple LNG projects; and sue Cleveland-Cliffs for breaking its contract to the Prime Minister. Which of these have you completed?”

“The Prime Minister broke his promise to get a steel deal. He allows foreign steel to be dumped here, keeps the industrial carbon tax, and looks weak. I want to know if he will sue Cleveland-Cliffs today like he promised.”

“Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister broke his promise of getting a steel deal. The Liberals continue to allow the illegal dumping of foreign steel into the Canadian market. The Liberals refuse to cut the industrial carbon tax so that it is less expensive to work, produce and invest in Canada. The Liberals could take action today by taking Cleveland-Cliffs to court as they said they would. The Liberals’ lack of action makes Canada look weak. Will Canada continue to get bullied by Trump and his buddies, or will the Prime Minister file the lawsuit today?”
