The year end results for Cleveland Cliffs and Stelco have now been reported. We will have a separate update meeting about Stelco's performance on March 4th, where we will have our PSP meeting and find out the fourth quarter results.

Terry McKinnon and I met with Jagmeet Singh last week. He wanted to get our view on the tariffs and announced that his platform would include any new Canadian infrastructure projects should only use Canadian steel.

Don't forget that the raffle for Leaf tickets ends next week. Please get a hold of the Ways and Means Committee or myself for tickets.

If you had payroll deduct extra money from your pay for such things as RRSP's, please make sure it wasn't forgotten about when they moved over to the Workday system.

Remember that all summer student applications must be submitted by February 28th for consideration.

As you know tomorrow is the Provincial Election Day. Please take the time to get out and vote.

RUMOUR OF THE WEEK...

      "If you go to medical and they sent you home because of illness then Stelco will pay you." This is not true. If you are sent home by medical for illness (unless you are admitted overnight at a hospital), then you must wait 7 calendar days before you can start a Short-term Disability Claim. Pickle Lines there is a 5 calendar day waiting period.

Thanks,
