Mr. Speaker, the steel industry in Quebec and Canada is facing very serious problems as a result of the financial crisis in Asian countries and in Russia.
To clear their stocks, these countries are selling their rolled steel at a price that is lower than what it costs to produce, which clearly represents an unfair dumping practice.
My question is for the Minister for International Trade. What does the minister plan to do to stop this unfair competition, given that this industry generates nearly 200,000 direct and indirect jobs in Canada?
