Another thing about that interview: he continually uses Algoma Steel's shutdown of its old furnace and the accompanying loss of jobs in an attempt to justify his actions . . . but they've been planning to shut that furnace down since the Biden administration (they built a new, less-polluting electric arc furnace that doesn't require as many personnel to replace it). The tariffs moved the timetable up by a year, but those jobs were always going to go away, and everyone (including the union) knew it. The workers had time to plan and received some supports to retrain or find a new job. Completely different situation from Stelco. So anything he says about that is just blowing smoke.
