> In late October 2026, Stellantis was reportedly considering closing and selling its Brampton plant in Ontario, raising concerns among the Unifor union and its members about the future of automotive employment in Canada. Canadian employees at Stellantis voted on a strike mandate as collective bargaining talks with the automaker reached an impasse, with Unifor set to announce the outcome.
