A electric car would be fine with me if it made power like gas cars are. Full torque at 0 rpm.

Looks like GM is announcing that Oshawa is shuttering.

https://toronto.ctvnews.ca/general-m...k&_gsc=Whl7hcM

Quote:
While the union does not have complete details of the overall announcement we have been informed that, as of now, there is no product allocated to the Oshawa Assembly Plant past December 2019
But, they also said:

Quote:
An announcement of no product allocation would not necessarily mean a closure.
Then they go on to:

Quote:
The indications are that the closure may be part of a global restructuring of the company and that there could be other plant closures around the world, sources said.

It’s not clear whether other GM jobs in Markham, Ingersoll and St. Catharines could be affected as well.

A spokesperson for GM said in an email Sunday night that the company had no news or comment to share and would not comment on “speculation.”
