"Our industries strongly support and welcome today's announcement by the Government of Canada that recognizes the strategic importance of steel and aluminium to Canada's economic security interests.

"By taking this proactive approach of tariffs directed towards China, Canada is protecting our workers, families and the communities that these vital industries support. Canada is also taking the important step of aligning with its CUSMA trading partners, protecting fortress North America and refusing to be a point of entry for unfairly traded and high carbon steel and aluminium imports.

"We also recognize and are grateful for the support of the Official Opposition in advancing the importance of a swift holistic approach to the issue of Chinese overcapacity. Today's move puts Canada's economy and its trading relationships as a clear and strategic priority where a strong multi-partisan approach serves Canada's best interests to protecting our industries and the workers that continue to build our country.

"Moving towards the implementation of these measures, our sectors will continue to work closely with the government and all political parties to ensure the details of these measures protect Canada's trade and economic interests."
