Oshawa Holiday schedule

I seemed to have missed this but I understand Oshawa is taking time off or idling back for the xmas holidays? When is this taking place? I thought I had heard it was two weeks and I assume it is the last two weeks of this month but I would like to know for sure please.

Cheers
Kinley

Both the Camaro and Impala plants will shut down on Dec 23 . The Camaro plant will be down for an additional 1 week in January and resuming production on the 11th of Jan. This added week is for some re-tooling time that is needed in the flex plant for product upgrades. Hope this helps.

Very interesting Mike, I didn't know that.

And thanks again for my best-ever Christmas present!

Congrats on some well deserved time off. All the Oshawa employees have been working very hard for a long time now.

When production starts up again will it still be six days a week?

+1. Thanks for working all the OT! With the economy the way it is most people are just happy to be working, but I can imagine giving up your Saturdays for last several months is starting to hurt personal and family time! As a fellow Ontarian I just wanted to extend my gratitude to all those making that sacrifice so we can have our awesome cars! I think mine should be built sometime in January. I can't be more proud to have my car built right here in Ontario and help support everyone involved!
Thanks again!!!
