克利夫兰克里夫斯公司表示，斯泰尔科公司今年第三季度是自2024年被这家美国公司收购以来“最强劲”的一个季度。
Cleveland-Cliffs says Stelco's third quarter this year was its "strongest" since it was acquired by the U.S. company in 2024.
与此同时，这家钢铁制造商在安大略省汉密尔顿和南蒂科克的数百名员工将失去工作。裁员通知已于本月早些时候开始发出，目前仍在继续。
At the same time, hundreds working for the steelmaker in Ontario are set to lose their jobs in Hamilton and Nanticoke. Layoff notices started rolling out earlier this month and are continuing.
克利夫兰克里夫斯公司首席执行官洛伦索·贡萨尔维斯周一在一份声明中表示：“第三季度是斯泰尔科公司自两年前被我们收购以来最强劲的季度……加拿大的热轧市场已大幅改善。”
"Third quarter was Stelco’s strongest ... since we acquired the company two years ago. The Canadian hot-rolled market has improved substantially," Cleveland-Cliffs CEO Lourenco Goncalves said in a statement Monday.
“然而，加拿大政府还需要采取更多行动，以纠正加拿大镀锌钢市场明显供过于求的局面。”
斯泰尔科控股公司于9月28日表示，由于美国关税挤压了其销售额，该公司计划让汉密尔顿工厂的部分设施停产，以“确保公司生存”。
"However, more needs to be done by the Canadian government to correct a clearly oversupplied market for galvanized steel in Canada." ‘Nowadays, you need a lot fewer people’: Laid-off Stelco workers not alone as steel jobs disappear Stelco Holdings Inc. said on Sept. 28 it planned to idle part of its Hamilton plant in order to "ensure the survival" of the company as U.S. tariffs has squeezed its sales.
美国钢铁工人工会1005分会主席罗恩·韦尔斯对加拿大广播公司表示，预计汉密尔顿将有333人被裁。美国钢铁工人工会8782分会主席约翰·麦克尔罗伊表示，南蒂科克的伊利湖工厂预计最多有50人被裁。
Ron Wells, president of United Steelworkers Local 1005, told CBC that 333 layoffs were expected in Hamilton. USW Local 8782 president John McElroy said up to 50 layoffs are expected at the Lake Erie Works in Nanticoke.
在周一的财报电话会议上，贡萨尔维斯表示，克利夫兰克里夫斯公司的所有主要利润驱动因素都有所增加。
'In a perfect world,' federal government would nationalize Stelco, says Hamilton union leader During an earnings call Monday, Goncalves said all of Cleveland-Cliffs's major profit drivers increased.
他赞扬了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的贸易政策，称这些政策“正帮助创造必要条件，使像我们这样的公司能够继续投资[当地]社区并扩大国内生产”，尽管斯泰尔科公司曾将关税列为经济困境的关键原因。
He praised U.S. President Donald Trump's trade policies, saying they are "helping create the conditions needed for companies like ours to continue investing in [local] communities and expanding domestic production," despite Stelco citing tariffs as a key reason for economic struggles.
今年6月，特朗普签署了一项行政命令，对从加拿大进口的某些钢铁和铝产品征收高达50%的关税。
Steel sales under 'best price environment in 3 years' In June, Trump signed an executive order applying up to 50 per cent tariffs to certain steel and aluminum imports from Canada.
贡萨尔维斯说：“我们目前在三年来最好的价格环境中销售钢铁。”
"We are currently selling steel under the best price environment in three years," said Goncalves.
“这些是我们运营一家蓬勃发展的业务所需的价格，能够增加就业、支付员工优厚薪酬、再投资于人员和设备，并保护我们的关键供应链和国防。”
"These are the prices we need to run a thriving business that grows employment, pays its workers well, reinvests in people and equipment, and protects our critical supply chains and national defence."
贡萨尔维斯表示，热轧钢铁业务的成功是加拿大政府关税配额制度的直接结果，该制度限制了可进口产品的数量。
Goncalves said the success of the hot-rolled steel business was a direct consequence of the Canadian government's system tariff-rate quota, which limits the amount of product that can be imported.
联邦政府曾表示，克利夫兰克里夫斯公司对斯泰尔科公司的收购包含承诺，即雇用的工会员工数量“至少与2024年及整个2029年期间的工会员工数量相同”，非工会员工也绝大部分如此。
The federal government has said Cleveland-Cliffs's purchase of Stelco included promises to employ "at least the same number of unionized employees and the vast majority of non-unionized employees" as there were in 2024 and through 2029.
联邦工业部长梅拉尼·若利表示，“商业决策甚至市场条件的变化都不能成为不遵守承诺的借口。”
Federal Industry Minister Mélanie Joly said "a business decision or even a change in market conditions cannot be used to not follow their commitment."
贡萨尔维斯重申了斯泰尔科公司的立场，即裁员是一项临时措施，直到加拿大和美国达成贸易协议。
Goncalves reiterated Stelco's position that the layoffs are a temporary measure until Canada and the U.S. reach a trade agreement.
他表示，加拿大市场是“脆弱的”，他一直在要求政府阻止或“大幅减少”镀锌钢向该市场的进口。
He said the Canadian market is "exposed" and that he has been asking the government to block or "severely reduce" the importing of galvanized steel into the market.
他说，如果发生这种情况，“斯泰尔科可以立即召回所有临时被裁的工人。”
If that happens, he said, "Stelco can immediately bring back all the temporarily laid-off workers."
他还表示，他愿意出售斯泰尔科公司，并准备在法庭上与加拿大政府对抗，以维护裁员计划。
He also said he's willing to sell Stelco and is prepared to fight the Canadian government in court to preserve the plan to lay off workers.
本月早些时候，若利表示渥太华正在考虑对克利夫兰克里夫斯公司采取一系列法律选项。
'Everything is on the table,' Joly says, as Ottawa weighs legal action over Stelco layoffs Earlier this month, Joly said Ottawa is considering a range of legal options against Cleveland- Cliffs.
这位部长表示，政府正在根据《加拿大投资法》第40条审查其选项。这些选项可能包括经济处罚、强制公司遵守承诺的法院命令，或者要求其出售加拿大资产的命令。
The minister said the government is examining its options under Section 40 of the Investment Canada Act. They could include financial penalties, a court order forcing the company to comply with its commitments or an order requiring it to sell its Canadian assets.
韦尔斯周一向加拿大广播公司汉密尔顿分台表示，随着裁员的进行，工人们感到“不受重视”。
Cleveland-Cliffs CEO says he's prepared to fight Canada in court over Stelco layoffs CEO's messaging 'confusing,' union rep says Wells told CBC Hamilton on Monday that workers are feeling "underappreciated" as layoffs proceed.
他说：“他们是奉献、忠诚的员工。他们加班加点、牺牲节假日，错过了孩子的冰球比赛和毕业典礼，而这种忠诚并没有得到回报。”韦尔斯还称贡萨尔维斯的信息“令人困惑”。
"They're dedicated, loyal employees" he said. "They work weekends, they work holidays, they missed their kids' hockey games, graduations, and that loyalty isn't being repaid." Wells also called Goncalves's messaging "confusing."
韦尔斯说：“他说斯泰尔科第三季度的业绩很好，他们是有盈利的。如果他们有盈利，为什么要关闭我们的[冷轧]和涂层[钢铁]部门？”
"He said Stelco's Q3 results were good, they're profitable. If they're profitable, why'd he shut down our [cold-rolled] and coated [steel] departments?"
他还指出，克利夫兰克里夫斯公司一直主张减少外国进口，并补充说，“美国[和]克利夫兰克里夫斯公司可能是该问题的一部分”，因为它是加拿大的主要钢铁进口商。
Wells said. He also noted that Cleveland-Cliffs is advocating for a reduction in foreign imports, adding that "the U.S. [and] Cleveland-Cliffs might be part of that problem" as a large steel importer to Canada.
韦尔斯说：“我们仍然希望若利部长能够兑现她执行《加拿大投资法》的承诺。”
"We still hope Minister Joly follows through with her commitment to enforce the Investment Canada Act," Wells said.
