Trump tariffs: Singh calls for action to defend Canadian workers from trade war impacts

At a press conference Thursday in Ottawa, Jagmeet Singh released his plan for a stronger, more resilient economy in response to Donald Trump’s economic attacks on Canada. The plan focuses on improving EI to cover more workers, rescuing at-risk home-building projects, and building an East-West energy grid. “Workers who are living with uncertainty need to know the government has their back,” Singh stated, emphasizing that government support must prioritize working people.
