Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced new tariffs on Chinese steel this week—an aggressive move to defend Canada’s steel manufacturing sector amid rising global trade tensions. The announcement, delivered at Walter Steel in Hamilton, Ontario (Bill’s hometown!) sends a clear message: Canada is ready to stand up for its workers and industries.

In Episode 179 of The Bill Kelly Podcast, Bill unpacks what this decision means for the steel industry, Canadian workers, and the country’s trade relationships. With Hamilton at the heart of the conversation, Bill shares local reaction from industry leaders and workers who’ve long felt the pressure of foreign imports and political inaction. Is Carney’s plan the lifeline the industry has been waiting for? And how will it shape Canada’s economic future?
