Algoma Steel CEO says feds knew Wednesday's layoffs were coming

The CEO of Algoma Steel says the Carney government and the Government of Ontario were aware that the company’s business plan included a re-tooling, which would lead to layoffs. This was before the government agreed to provide Algoma with a $500 million loan guarantee to offset the impact of U.S. tariffs.
