François-Philippe Champagne, the federal industry minister, is calling for a review of Ottawa's "business relationship" with Amazon after the company said it will close all seven of its warehouses in Quebec.

Amazon Canada says it is closing all of its warehouses in Quebec over the next two months. 1,700 permanent employees will be laid off, as will 250 temporary workers.

The political fallout from Amazon's decision to close all its warehouses in Quebec continues. The federal minister of innovation said the government will now review its business relationship with the retail giant where contracts have topped hundreds of millions of dollars.
