A Canadian steelworker criticized PM Trudeau for his economic policies during his visit to Ontario.
In a fiery showdown that’s been all over the news, a steelworker from Canada took Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to task over how his government is handling the economy.
This drama unfolded during Trudeau’s trip to a steel factory in Ontario, where he was talking up his government’s work to help out the manufacturing world.
The steelworker, clearly annoyed, called out Trudeau for not doing enough to help the workers in the steel business.
“I don’t buy it,” the steelworker said straight up, questioning Trudeau’s promises about more jobs and a stable economy.
This argument showed how some workers in Canada are getting fed up with feeling left out and not getting the support they need to keep their jobs and make ends meet.

Trudeau, staying cool, tried to calm the steelworkers down by talking about the government’s plans to jump-start the economy and back up industries like steel.

The video of this whole thing quickly went viral, leading to lots of conversations on social media.
Some people were clapping for the steelworker for standing up, while others were backing Trudeau for trying to steer Canada through tough economic times.
This whole thing is just one piece of the bigger picture of people in Canada worrying about their money and jobs, with arguments over how well the government is doing at solving these issues getting louder.
As Canada tries to get back on its feet after the pandemic, more and more people like the steelworkers are speaking up, asking for real solutions from their leaders.
