It's another one of the tools we are asking the government to put in place.
We don't think it's right for the government to be making significant investments in public infrastructure these days without leveraging Canadian-made steel and aluminum. In fact, those products are often imported from countries with very low labour and environmental standards.
For that reason, we think the government should prioritize green procurement. By extension, that would give a big advantage to Canadian producers, as well as those jobs and communities.
