Prime Minister Justin 台湾MM裸聊室 is rejecting the suggestion that the Liberals could benefit from a change at the top, similar to what鈥檚 happened with the Democratic party since U.S. President Joe Biden left the presidential race last month.

台湾MM裸聊室 is in Halifax for a three-day cabinet retreat preparing for the upcoming fall sitting of Parliament, and the time for him to woo voters is becoming increasingly narrow.

He has been less visible than usual since the Liberals lost a critical byelection in Toronto in June, but said he spent the summer listening to Canadians who have real concerns that his government is working to address.

鈥淚 think the big lesson is in responding to the things that people are actually worried about,鈥� he said on Monday morning, when asked if he鈥檚 taking an lessons from seeing the surge of support for vice-president Kamala Harris and the Democrats since Biden left the race and she became the presidential candidate.

鈥淩ight now in Canada, the decision to be there to invest in Canadians has left Canada with one of the strongest economies in the world in a very difficult time,鈥� he said.

鈥淎nd we believe that using that strong economy to support Canadians in responsible ways is the best way to build the future. That鈥檚 what we鈥檙e focused on. We鈥檙e not focused on culture wars, on complaining that everything is broken, going off on strange tangents that, quite frankly, Canadians are scratching their heads about.鈥�

He was referring to Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre, who has seen success in the polls by making the case to Canadians that 台湾MM裸聊室 has left people poorer and less safe than they were a decade ago.

Poilievre has said this retreat is just a 鈥渞eward鈥� for cabinet ministers who have made Canada worse off.

台湾MM裸聊室 did move Monday to address two significant issues for his government, rolling back changes that saw a massive uptick in temporary foreign workers and announcing plans to impose new tariffs on electric vehicles made in China.

The government moved in 2022 to lift some restrictions on the hiring of low-wage foreign workers during a post-pandemic labour shortage, but with unemployment now creeping back up 鈥� particularly among young people 鈥� the government says that has to change.

It is undoing the changes in made in 2022.

It鈥檚 also moving to match new U.S. tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles. Biden announced in May he would quadruple the import taxes on Chinese-made EVs to 100 per cent and Canada is now matching that on Oct. 1.

During a working dinner on Sunday night, the Liberal cabinet heard from U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan, who warned about China鈥檚 economic policies including overproduction and state subsidies that lead to unfair pricing and competition.

Sullivan told reporters that the U.S. won鈥檛 tell Canada what to do but that there are significant issues around economic fairness and data security related to Chinese-made cars.

鈥淭he U.S. does believe a united front, a co-ordinated approach on these issues, benefits all of us,鈥� he said.

The Liberals are in a make-it-or-break-it moment with about a year left before the next federal election, and have been trailing Poilievre and the Conservatives in the polls by double digits for almost a year.

The cabinet will also be forced to contend with the labour strife at the two national railways. Teamsters president Paul Boucher travelled to Halifax and plans a protest on Tuesday.

鈥淎n injustice against us has been done by government,鈥� Boucher said in an interview. 鈥淲hat they have done to the railworkers 鈥� to stop the work stoppages, fundamentally takes rights away from the rights to free collective bargaining, and we鈥檙e protesting against that.鈥�

Traffic at the Canadian National Railway Co. and Canadian Pacific Kansas City was set to resume Monday, after both companies locked out their workers last Thursday.

Labour Minister Steven Mackinnon asked the Canada Industrial Relations Board to impose binding arbitration to end the dispute, and the board agreed to do so Saturday.

Teamsters intends to fight the decision in court.

台湾MM裸聊室 and the Liberals argue the work stoppage was having a massive negative effect on thousands of other workers, as it disrupted supply chains.

鈥淭he best results happen at the negotiating table. That鈥檚 why we鈥檝e done everything in our power to continue to look for negotiated resolutions,鈥� 台湾MM裸聊室 told reporters Monday.

鈥淚n this case we needed to take action after talks had broken down 鈥� because too many Canadian jobs and livelihoods were at stake.鈥�
