This Algoma Steel layoff situation just keeps getting worse and worse. Union claims the government kept giving money (to the tune of millions) without ANY worker provisions. Worse—they gave this money to lure Algoma into making “green steel”, which THEY KNEW would cause mass layoffs. This was confirmed in August of 2024 with a Globe and Mail report—but sure, let’s blame Trump tariffs 🤷‍♀️ Of course losing their entire market had an impact—but these layoffs were coming either way after Algoma decided to “transition”

Algoma Steel issued layoff notices for more than 1,000 workers at its Sault Ste. Marie plant today which take effect in March. The company is blaming U.S. tariffs, but it was recently given a $400 million dollar loan from Ottawa to protect those jobs. #cdnpoli

STEEL WORKERS PAY FOR THE COST OF CARNEY This week 1,000 Algoma Steel workers in my hometown of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont learned they’ll be laid off — more than 1/3 of all employees. As Pierre Poilievre reminded the House today while calling for an emergency debate, my father spent 30 years in that steel mill. I know exactly what these layoffs mean for families and for the community. While Liberals make empty promises, Conservatives will stand with Algoma Steel workers.

‼️ BREAKING Police states that they KNEW, FOR MONTHS that Algoma would be announcing layoffs, they were concerned about “protests and workers and staff damaging, sabotaging” THE REASON THEY WERE TOLD FOR THE LAYOFFS? THE TRANSITION FROM COAL TO ELECTRIC (GREEN) FURNACES. I think it now makes sense, why there were NO JOB GUARANTEES when the half a billion in loans from the government were offered to them.

WATCH: Vassy Kapelos asks Algoma Steel Inc. CEO Michael Garcia whether the federal government and Government of Ontario knew layoffs were coming before they agreed to $500M in loan assistance. "Well, I think the government certainly knows our business strategy," he says. "I don't think anybody would loan the company half a billion dollars without asking very detailed questions about what our business plan was." #cdnpoli #ctvpp More:

Did she even read the Contract?? Or just reading the script provided to have the MSM propaganda machine spread false news?? The cost of being 'forced' to go 'GREEN'. Melanie Joly says despite the 1000 layoffs at Algoma Steel, the $500,000,000 in government funds were a good idea because "their can be more jobs that come back to Algoma" and that this is a sign that their "buy Canada policy is working." Who would ever buy that delusional spin??

MSM is desperately trying to convey calm about CUSMA going into annual reviews. There are 3 key truths they aren't reporting: 1⃣ The 232 tariffs remain on steel, aluminum & forestry. Carney has given these sectors >$11 billion to keep them alive & they are still bleeding jobs (Algoma laid off 1,000). The 🇺🇸 has major investments in steel & aluminum. 2⃣ The auto manufacturers in 🇨🇦 are investing $40 billion in new plants in the 🇺🇸. It's just a matter of time before more jobs move there. 3⃣ The uncertainty this causes is deadly for business investment in 🇨🇦. ⏰Trump is waiting us out. The rhetoric is now "a deal by the midterms or next year." Carney is playing right into his hands. We are being slowly crushed. Marc Nixon Moose on the Loose

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump exposes to America that Barack Hussein Obama is the reason Iran STRENGTHENED and threatened the whole world All roads lead to Hussein! 47 is now cleaning up the mess. "He gave them $1.7 billion in cash, in green cash put in an airplane and brought it to Iran!" "1.7 billion dollars. Do you ever see? Did you ever see a million dollars in cash? This is 1.7 billion. It took up an entire seven Boeing 757 and they flew it to Iran and they gave it to people that were waiting at a plane!" "Can you imagine these people? They never saw money and all of a sudden they've got 1.7 billion in cash and he gave them hundreds of billions of dollars in cash." "He went to their side and because of that — they built and become more powerful."

So MAGA Steel Workers in Dearborn,Michigan just got the news that 500 of them are getting laid off thanks to Trump’s Tariffs and they said they should have known better and it’s a big FAFO ! There are also more lay offs coming to the Steel industry soon. 😡

The City of Brampton has led the conversation in Canada for international students visas to be linked to housing, and we are pleased that Algoma University is expanding their footprint in Brampton with the building of a new student residence with over 500 beds. This is exactly what we hoped for. Located at Park St and Nelson Street West, it will be a short walk to the downtown campus, providing safe, affordable housing for students. Well done Asima Vezina (she/her) Algoma University Brampton Algoma University 👏🏼👏🏼

$What you are looking at is, An electric arc furnace is one of the few machines on Earth that deliberately creates controlled lightning. Three graphite electrodes, each weighing 1-2 tonnes, carry up to 150,000 amps, generating an electric arc approaching 4,000°C while melting hundreds of tonnes of steel at around 1,650°C. A single electric arc furnace can pull up to 300 MW of power, enough electricity to power roughly 265,000 homes, yet it concentrates that same energy into a few metres of space to create a controlled 4,000°C electric arc. The graphite electrodes slowly consume themselves every heat, while hydraulic controls continuously adjust their position to keep the arc stable as the scrap collapses beneath them. The real engineering challenge isn't creating the heat. It's keeping the furnace alive. Behind the arc sits a lining of MgO-C refractory bricks and water-cooled panels, designed to survive relentless thermal shock, chemical attack from molten slag, and temperatures that would destroy ordinary materials in seconds. A modern ultra-high-power electric arc furnace costs roughly $50-85 million, while a complete EAF steel plant can exceed $1 billion. What looks like an old dusty factory with glowing molten steel is actually one of the most advanced industrial systems on Earth, Billion-dollar machines combining extreme electricity, materials science, and automation to produce the steel that powers modern economies. 🎥anshanjusthigh$

BREAKING NEWS: The Trump administration is CUTTING OFF funding to LA's homeless program. The LA Homeless Services Authority program is losing tens of millions of dollars for engaging in FRAUD. "This is a huge blow to the L.A. Homeless Services Authority. They were informed within the last hour that they are losing these tens of millions of dollars. They've gotten over a billion dollars since 2021 in federal taxpayer funding, and now they're going to lose it as this investigation goes underway. This is from the White House fraud task force in coordination with Housing and Urban Development. This is a 13-page letter that we obtained, exclusively sent to this agency. According to the letter, LAHSA has received a billion dollars from HUD since 2021. The letter goes on to point out that L.A. County has withdrawn funding for the agency. The city of L.A. is considering the same."

Elon Musk and DOGE were right. Rep Tim Burchett confirms Congress is laundering millions of our tax dollars to Democrat’s billionaire donors NGOs 🚨 He also says United Nations staff have created thousands of NGOs and WE’RE PAYING FOR THEM ALL “NGOs — Here's what happens. You got these billionaires who hate our guts, want ever, destroy everything we stand for. They'll put a million dollars in some group that has some fancy name, Feed the Children — They'll put a million dollars in there, which is nothing to them, pennies on their dollars. And so they, they, they apply for this federal money and then they, the unelected bureaucrat in Washington says, oh, they got a million dollars, man, they're legit. And so then they literally have put billions upon billions of dollars in these things” Afghanistan alone, over a thousand non government organizations are working out there. And you add the, the UN stuff, and we think it could be multiples of thousands of organizations working out of there, all this bogus stuff.“

Biden released the money, gave it to the Mullahs, and the Mullahs turned around and financed — terror groups — That's what happened in the Biden-Harris administration” - In September 2023, the Biden administration issued a sanctions waiver allowing the transfer of approximately $6 billion in Iranian oil revenues - Separately, the Biden Admin extended a sanctions waiver allowing Iran access to roughly $10 billion in escrow funds This gave Iran access to $16 billion dollars Democrats are the worst enemy America has
