This goes back to that regulatory harmony. On the notion of providing certainty, for example, even if we were able to work on certain issues with the United States—for example on a BCA—we still have the implementation of a carbon tax, which the United States doesn't have.
On Monday, we had Catherine Cobden here from the Canadian Steel Producers Association, and she said:
Before we had a carbon price, our steel industry was suffering in our competitive position when we had to compete with unfair traders who were dumping into our market. Now we have the added problem of trying to compete with fair traders, like the Americans, who are very prevalent. They represent 40% of our import share, and we're competing with them, and they do not have a carbon price. Given the $80 per tonne of CO2 emissions that we now face, that makes a significant difference. The issue is that the carbon price will continue to rise year over year....
It went up in 2023 and 2024, and it's going up again in April. How can we maintain jobs and our competitive position, as Mr. Lundblad indicated earlier? We want to continue to have jobs in the Hamilton steel sector.
