A few reasons. Part of it was that they had to come good on an original agreement with the CAW when they closed the 4th gen plant in Quebec. Not going into detail there except to say part of the deal was that they not build the Camaro in any other country.

Secondly, the Oshawa plant is the highest quality plant in North America. It produces more higher quality cars then any other GM plant in Mexico, Canada or the US. Why wouldn't you want it built there? If the car was built at any other GM plant, the quality would suffer. American made isn't always the best.
