Canada to limit foreign steel imports to help producers hit by U.S. tariffs
Prime Minister Mark Carney is taking action to crack down on the dumping of cheap foreign steel into Canada to help the country's big three steel producers reeling from U.S. President Donald Trump's 50-per-cent tariffs. Mr. Carney in a press conference in Ottawa on Thursday said the government will limit steel imports from countries that don't have a free trade agreement with Canada to 2024 levels. He said the move will 'stabilize the domestic market and prevent harmful trade diversion as the result of the U.S. actions that are destabilizing markets.' Trump in early June doubled tariffs on steel imports to 50 per cent. The Canadian Steel Producers Association, which represents 17 companies, including Algoma Steel Group Inc., Dofasco and Stelco, has repeatedly advocated for antidumping duties to help ease the pain of the U.S. tariffs on Canadian steel producers. Algoma Steel Group Inc. chief executive Michael Garcia has argued on multiple occasions that mills from China, South Korea, Malaysia, India, Vietnam, the Middle East and Turkey regularly dump steel into Canada. That makes it nearly impossible for the company to compete in its home market at a time when the U.S. market has become unviable owing to Mr. Trump's tariffs. He pleaded for the government to immediately place anti-dumping tariffs on the offending countries. Dumping is selling at an artificially low price to gain market share. About 60 per cent of the domestic steel market is controlled by foreign producers. Mr. Carney said that on July 21 Canada will adjust counter tariffs placed on U.S. imports of steel and aluminum to levels that will depend on how ongoing trade talks with the Trump administration are going. When Mr. Trump first imposed 25-per-cent tariffs on Canadian steel imports in March, Ottawa responded by imposing reciprocal tariffs on imports of U.S. steel. But Canada subsequently granted a tariff reprieve on some products coming from the U.S., including steel used in manufacturing and processing. Earlier this week at the G7 summit in Alberta, Mr. Carney said that he and Mr. Trump had agreed to work on a deal that would see the trade war end within 30 days. The government on Thursday also said that effective June 30 it will limit its steel purchases for federal projects to domestic producers and to foreign countries that provide reciprocal access to Canadian companies.

The TDSB just passed a budget aimed at slashing its $34.4M deficit. Here is how it might impact your child's school
TDSB Chair Neethan Shan says the province has underfunded public education and speaks about the financial challenges they are facing. TDSB Chair Neethan Shan says the province has underfunded public education and speaks about the financial challenges they are facing. Toronto District School Board (TDSB) trustees passed the board's latest budget Wednesday, but were forced to include a number of measures to tighten belts in the wake of provincial scrutiny. The $3.7 billion budget will balance the board's books by eliminating a $34.4 million deficit over the next two years. 'I am pleased that we have increased funding to valuable programs such as special education and music instruction, while maintaining TDSB pools for another year,' TDSB Chair Neethan Shan said in a statement. 'Sadly, Ministry underfunding will mean we will be put in this difficult position again next year. It is my sincere hope that we can work with the Ministry to address the growing funding gaps so that we can maintain critical programming in a fiscally responsible way.' Underpinning the situation is a ministry investigation into the board's finances and a dispute between the board and the province over whether the TDSB – the largest school board in the country – is underfunded by the province, especially when it comes to special education. Education Minister Paul Calandra's office said the ministry has given the TDSB 'multiple opportunities' to address its financial situation. 'The province is asking the board to find savings of less than two per cent, and instead of looking for administrative savings, they have threatened to cut services for students,' a statement from Calandra's office reads. 'The TDSB's historic mismanagement required our government to take immediate action, which is why we have announced a financial investigation to ensure board resources are going to support students.' Here's what the TDSB is doing in order to balance the books this year The board says it is putting a pause on issuing new Chromebooks for students in the 2025-26 schoolyear and will instead recirculate devices returned by graduating Grade 12 students. An 'Attendance Support Program' is expected to reduce costs related to sick-leave Central departments will reduce spending by $9.5 million in operating expenses that the board says have 'limited impact' on services. Fees will be hiked for general interest and other continuing education programming. The board considered closing school pools it doesn't lease out, but held off on the move due to public pressure. While the board found money to keep aquatic programs going for another year, those services could be in jeopardy again at budget time next year unless other savings are found. The budget will now go to the Ministry of Education for final approval by the end of June.
