The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday, Nov. 10, edition that Stellantis has finalized the sale of its idled factory in Brampton, Ont., to defence contractor Roshel for an undisclosed amount. The Globe's Eric Atkins writes that Stellantis closed the plant for retooling in 2023, and moved planned production of the Jeep Compass to Illinois last year, after the United States imposed 25-per-cent tariffs on Canadian-made cars. The deal is expected to close by the end of the year, subject to regulatory requirements, the companies said. Roshel's owner, Roman Shimanov says, "Every Canadian should be happy because we're talking about a substantial change to a plant that was idle for three years." Unifor says the sale was a breach of the collective agreement and commitments to the federal government, which provided hundreds of millions of dollars to Stellantis to refit the plant. Unifor national president Lana Payne says: "Stellantis has betrayed our members with an underhanded deal to sell the plant and walk away from its commitments to our members. Allowing the sale to move forward is a critical failure of the national auto strategy and breaks the federal government's promise to protect autoworkers in the U.S. trade war."
