Merry Christmas from GM to the remaining 3000 employees left on Oshawa, the assembly plat that once had 40,000 workers....closing it's doors for good.
Working in the machine shop trade, I caught wind of a massive contract cancellation with a company also in Ontario and the immediate layoff of those workers as well less than a week ago. Do I smell the start of something? Back in late 2016, a GM exec threatened a pullout due to an unfavorable business climate north of the boarder. The CAMI plant in Ingersol can expect this same treatment.
A sad but inevitable day.
