EconomyJoly to announce life sciences manufacturing investment as Stelco layoff threat looms | LIVE

Canadian Industry Minister Mélanie Joly is expected to announce an investment in the life sciences sector in Quebec on Thursday, including funding for Jubilant Radiopharma to advance medical technology production. The announcement follows her threat Wednesday to act over impending layoffs at Stelco’s Hamilton, Ontario, plant. She said owner Cleveland-Cliffs cannot use the trade war to justify cutting jobs it had committed to keeping.
