"Tom Francis - SWSports" wrote in message ... Tell me again why we're dumping billions down this rat hole? http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/18/bu....html?_r=1&hpw Just last week GMy closed a truck manufacturing plant in Ontario. I think the Canadian gov't should forget about stuffing billions into this dead horse and encourage the best of the Asian companies to build plants here. |

The Asian automanufacturers will go where the labor laws are most favorable. This means as far away from the UAW/CAW as they can get. The European and Asian auto manufacturers have already proven that there is a viable non-union workforce in the southeastern US. |

Interesting...a national cable tv program called 'Car Business' did an item on the new billion dollar assembly plant in Woodstock Ontario. Yes...this is a Toyota plant producing RAV4s' for the North American market. (my RAV4 was assembled there) Seems it was planned to have 3 shifts pumping our 200K SUVs per year but the downturn has them operating one shift producing 70K RAV4s'. |

It's the lack of interest in RAV4's. |

They will go where they can get a favorable position on cost, efficiency and quality with a view that is longer than Wagoner's nose. Practicing business the way it should be. Something the CAW/UAW will never understand while they have their hands out for taxpayers moneys. |

You see, idiot, Don's M.O. is when someone shows him how stupid he is, he instantly starts picking up everyone's typos, misspells, etc. You'd think that someone that would do that, would be able to keep his OWN house in order. |

When, where, or why did the Canadian government spend "billions" on GM? I'm not saying it isn't true but I would love to see if it is. Tax credits only go so far. |

Total waste of hard earned Canadian taxpayers dollars. To size per capita to the US, multiply by ten. So $4B Canadian has about the same per capita impact as $40B. Jack ass bailout governments. |
