Ontario and Canada are providing over $203,000 to support Stelco workers impacted by upcoming layoffs. This funding will assist 75 workers and jobseekers with skills assessments and training plans. The announcement follows federal pressure on Stelco to present a job retention strategy. Stelco plans to lay off up to 500 employees due to tariff impacts and market conditions. The initiative aims to help workers transition into new careers and provide employers with a skilled labor pool.
