GM Workers Win Big in Canada | Montreal News
Description
GM workers in Canada just approved a landmark contract worth over a billion dollars, unlocking new heavy-duty truck production in Ontario and boosting wages—production staff to $52.20/hour, skilled trades to $62.71/hour. With 80%+ approval across key plants and nearly 97% in Ingersoll, the deal mirrors Ford’s recent agreement and comes as U.S. tariffs loom. While the CAMI plant in Ingersoll remains shuttered with workers on layoff, GM pledged to consider defense work there and invest in St. Catharines for future transmissions. Bonuses and cost-of-living allowances offer short-term relief as unions push for production to return—keeping Canada’s auto heart beating through tough times.
