OT Note GM. GM in Canada. In Oshawa the plant was once called the Autoplex the largest automotive manufacturing site in North America. Now down to one truck line and a stamping operation for CCA service parts. CAMI in Ingersoll is converted to Brightdrop EV (no production) St Catharine...

That's fallacy. Its not a swing or a pendulum, Politics and Culture are a ratchet ever moving left. You can slow the rate of increase, maybe slow it down all together, sometimes even stop it. But you can never reverse it ever. Take Harper he was for a time able to slow the rate, and in couple...

"clean" OK, but we a decades now from that. Plus we have taken the EV off ramp to I hope this all works out land.

Canada has no problem with automotive component sales. It is one of the largest businesses in the country. The biggest problem is that there is no home grown Defence Prime OEM. This very much was a government policy. They did not want a Prime that they would have support like other...

Ok I will follow this.

Current stuff is supported by CCC. But Canada itself is sometimes not a great supplier. IE Bell helos to PH, LAV to the house of Saud, etc. Oh and GM in Canada. The pickup trucks built in Oshawa are just assembled its just an overflow plant. The current stamping plant on site just presses...

I have come to come to the conclusion that either every Sci Fi movie I watched in the eighties was seen as "that looks great" and they now use it a how to manual or I was just a very small minority said that looks terrible lets not do that. I thought they were warnings.....But now I can see...

If you come to Windsor and see the thing they are building it will blow your minds. The amount of South Korean content is massive. There are not enough hotels from Windsor to Toronto to house the S Koreans coming to outfit it.

500,000 set for next year

I always thought the pitch would be co-development of the A220 as a MPA with France. As they don't want to buy US and were looking to develop with Germany.

Windsor has many openings. In that pay range. https://www.aarcorp.com/en/careers/jobs/windsor/ But it going to get nuts around here soon.

I think JT is petty. And the family and Quebec Inc. are mad. The Liberal party could use some full paperbags right about now too. But mainly just petty.

This is interesting. US India deal on Strykers. Funny part about first time Strykers being built in another country. Me thinks his briefing notes are not correct. Lol I was thinking the LAV 6, have Canadian R&D in them and would need Canadian permission. Or are the "Strykers" are US...

You will find that Trudeau and Co are behind the support for Bombardier.
