Ontario Premier Doug Ford was joined by the prime minister in Windsor today for the announcement of $1B in funding to help Stellantis retool its Canadian auto plants to make electric vehicles.
Ford says his government has a plan to attract more investment to the province’s auto and manufacturing sectors.
Last month, Canada and Ontario invested $259M each in part to transform GM’s CAMI assembly plant in Ingersoll to become Canada's first full-scale commercial electric vehicle production factory.
