Automaker Stellantis announced it's moving production of the Jeep Compass from Brampton, Ont., to Illinois as part of a larger expansion in the U.S. It’s the latest blow to Canada’s auto industry since the start of the trade war.

Brampton

Stellantis has transferred production from its Brampton, Ontario assembly plant to Illinois, resulting in the temporary layoff of 3,000 workers. The move follows the imposition of a 25% tariff on foreign-made autos by the U.S. government, which led the company to freeze plans to reopen the Canadian facility.

Stellantis announced a $13 billion investment to boost U.S. auto production and create over 5,000 jobs. The company stated it will add a third shift at its Windsor, Ontario plant and plans to discuss the future of the Brampton facility with the Canadian federal government. The situation has raised concerns about the broader impact on Canada's auto industry and economy.

Stellantis moves thousands of auto jobs to U.S.

Stellantis is moving production from this assembly plant in Brampton, Ontario across the border to Illinois. We're not just going to sit here and say that's okay because it's not okay. They've made commitments to this plant. The company closed the plant in 2023 temporarily laying off 3,000 workers. Stellantis was revamping operations to build the Jeep Compass SUV but froze plans to reopen in February after U.S. President Donald Trump slapped a 25% tariff on foreign-made autos. Now with no vehicle to build, those jobs are up in the air. We allow this to happen to the Brampton assembly plant. It could snowball to other facilities in the auto industry. It comes as Stellantis says it will spend $13 billion in the U.S. over the next four years boosting auto production there by 50% and creating more than 5,000 jobs. We share with President Trump his goal to have again manufacturing system in automotive very strong in the U.S. America's gain has been Canada's loss. Earlier this year, GM cut 750 jobs in Oshawa as it boosted manufacturing south of the border. These shifts all part of Trump's end game. We don't really want Canada to make cars for us to put it bluntly. We want to make our own cars. The reality is the U.S.-owned automakers in this country have almost abandoned this country and we need to be moving on and looking at other potential investors. But some warn Canada should push back. It doesn't stop at auto. They will keep coming until they have weakened us as a nation and as an economy. In nearby Windsor, Stellantis workers say the mood across the industry is grim. We've had a layoff already not that long ago. Yeah, it's sort of a shaky uncertain sort of market. Of course, everybody's going to be up on the edge trying to figure out what they're going to do next. For now, the future of this plant and its workers still very much in limbo. Nisha, what else are you hearing from Stellantis? Adrian Stellantis tells CBC News tonight that it is investing in Canada by adding a third shift to its plant in Windsor, Ontario. The company says that it does have plans for this Brampton assembly plant and will share them after it talks to the federal government. All right, thank you. That is Nisha Patel reporting in Brampton, Ontario.
