GM: We are committed to Canada and taking care of our people in Oshawa

A lot has been said with respect to the GM Oshawa Assembly news and our transformation plans in Canada. We remain deeply committed to building a strong future within Canada’s very vibrant auto sector.

Numerous GTA employers have approached us with more than 5,000 open jobs and a desire to rehire impacted Oshawa workers.  If you need any information about our retraining and other supports for our employees you may reference that at   www.supportingoshawaworkers.ca  I also encourage you to follow us on Twitter @GMcanada .

On Friday, Unifor called for a boycott on the purchase of vehicles made in Mexico and sold in Canada.  We have also made efforts to set the record straight with a GM Canada statementand with media such as these:

  • The John Oakley Show
  • CP24
