a competent workforce being laid off or forced to retire without training a new generation of skilled labor.

it's a damn waste of human resources and a big hit on local economy.

That's correct, but bringing jobs back to the US (No offense to those over the borders) is very important to our economy.

and its coming to GM’s Lansing, MI plant. so built in 'Merica.

"GM will avoid layoffs by offering retirement incentives to its Oshawa workers, of whom a whopping nearly 60 percent are apparently close to retirement. "

"The Camaro move will leave production of four vehicles at Oshawa: Chevrolet Impala and Equinox, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. "

"Maybe we’re being too hard on GM, a company that just announced 100 new engineering jobs in Oshawa."


Let the Canadian gov figure out how to incentive how to bring in more business.

at least we aren't like the Chinese outsourcing their work to Africa which has even worse factory conditions and pay standards


just my $0.02

Production has already ended for the convertible and Z/28 ( I was lucky enough to do the final inspection and buy-off of these two vehicles )

Final production of Oshawa built 5thgens will be Friday November 20th .

That seems strange to me that the 2015 model will be in production at the same time the 2016 will. Has that ever happened before for any car manufacturer?
