It’s time to start moving the bulk of the manufacturing future and identical building equipment to a new facility and leave it to a Canadian Union team and Stellantis representatives to hammer out a reimagined use for Brampton. In the interim a favorable tariff agreement is put in place to allow current vehicles to be built in Canada until the U.S. site opens. I see no alternative. It’s up to the union to phase in a downsized workforce and relocations for displaced workers. It’s business, not personal but that is stark reality.

Once again this all goes back to one guy causing all of this disruption. It is time for Congress to grow a big set and put an end to this tariff idiocy.

The tariffs started over 60 years ago with the Europeans and then Canada stepped in. Those tariffs were against the US. Enjoy the net zero energy economy that's coming your way.
