Madam Speaker, I know my hon. colleague from Hamilton Centre is a strong champion for the steel sector. When we think about Hamilton, when we think about Sault Ste. Marie and when we think about our communities in Regina and across this country, it is a foundational pillar of the Canadian economy and it is under duress because of section 232 tariffs from the United States.
The government has taken a number of measures, including most recently limiting the ability for steel to be imported from elsewhere around the world. We have measures in place, including around EI, to help support workers who are being impacted. We are focused on a procurement strategy that will be absolutely focused on being able to build out Canadian steel production. It is a difficult time, but the government is focused on what we can do.
