The threat of tariffs and lingering economic volatility has prompted the Quebec government to reconsider a pipeline project bringing liquefied natural gas (LNG) from western Canada to the province before shipping it overseas.

A union that represents some Montreal Amazon workers said it will petition a court to compel the company to reopen the warehouses and reverse the job cuts.

Amazon's decision to close all seven of its warehouses in the Canadian province of Quebec and terminate more than 1,900 workers is prompting legal action from the affected union.

After Amazon announced it would shutter its Quebec warehouses, costing 1,700 workers their jobs, a Canadian union said it would strike back.
