But for some towns in Quebec, the impact could be even more disruptive. The aluminum sector employs more than 40,000 people in Quebec, and the economies of some small towns are almost entirely reliant on aluminum production. And the sweeping nature of the steel and aluminum tariffs imposed by the Trump administration will make it difficult to find new buyers for Quebec aluminum.</p> Fri, 21 Feb 2025 16:39:01 +0000 admin 141558 at /dobson /dobson/channels/news/power-purpose-employee-motivation-364142 <p>Motivating employees isn鈥檛 just about perks or pay鈥攊t鈥檚 about helping them see the bigger picture.

In the case of aluminum production, much of Canada鈥檚 3.2 million metric tons of aluminum that Canada produces each year could be re-routed to Europe. But some communities could still be hit hard and other places that harvest natural resources won鈥檛 be able to find other buyers so easily. 鈥淭here are a lot of towns where the whole town will be impacted,鈥� says <a href="/desautels/saibal-ray"><strong>Saibal Ray</strong></a>, Professor of Operations Management.</p> Fri, 07 Feb 2025 02:25:32 +0000 admin 141568 at /dobson /dobson/channels/news/tim-hortons-still-canadian-363622 <p>Tim Hortons is deeply embedded in Canadian culture, but is it still truly Canadian?
