flag Canada’s Algoma Steel faces $215M loss from U.S. tariffs but gets $700M in support to shift to greener steel production.

flag Canada’s Algoma Steel, the nation’s last independent steelmaker, is facing a $215 million loss in 2025 due to U.S. tariffs under President Trump, which have disrupted its 60% U.S. market. flag The federal and Ontario governments have committed $700 million in support—including $400 million in loans and $70 million for worker training—to help the company transition to electric arc furnace technology. flag This shift, ahead of schedule, enables production of green steel with up to 70% lower emissions and positions Algoma as a leader in sustainable steelmaking. flag Despite short-term financial challenges, the company remains a key supplier of steel plate, sheet, and pipe for defense and infrastructure, with government procurement and global climate goals expected to drive demand for low-carbon steel by the 2030s.
