https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChLtXXpo4Ge1ReTEboVvTDg https://ift.tt/WkhS25y On Tuesday, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said he is calling for an emergency session of Canada's Parliament. He wants party leaders to come together to implement measures to protect Canadian workers in light of the broad U.S. import tariffs that came into effect Tuesday morning. "Canadians woke up today to a trade war. This is not something that we wanted. It is unwarranted. It is wrong. It's illegal," he said. "The impact of this is probably the worst economic attack on our country that we have experienced in our lifetime. And the repercussions can be devastating." Singh said MPs should quickly deliver a package of measures that includes expanding emergency insurance (EI) eligibility and providing amounts to support workers affected by Trump tariffs, investing in union jobs, and unanimously supporting retaliatory tariffs.
