Toyota opens SUV plant in Ontario

Despite slumping North American sales, Toyota officially opened a new
production facility in Woodstock, Ontario on Thursday.

It's predominantly an assembly operation as are all North American foreign
vehicle plants. I was a supplier to the auto industry for 30 years, and in
fact was involved with this operation while it was still a cow pasture, I
believe it was called "CAMI" while it was developed, strangely, with the aid
of GM of Canada,ironically now itself out to pasture.

No more than 25 to 30% of the "content" is domestic - the rest is Asian. If
it makes you feel better, the Korean vehicles "built" in North America are
less than 10% domestic content.

Hey, what the hell, you can always work at Walmart!

Check the material suppliers, the tooling companies and capital equipment
operations in Mississauga and Windsor. Dead. Why's that??????? See
above.

But you get good mileage!! hahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahaha
