Ottawa, province hope 'aggressive package' can prevent Stellantis plant sale: Joly
Ottawa is offering support to keep Stellantis from selling the Brampton plant, while Joly says the company could owe hundreds of millions of dollars.
- Industry Minister Mélanie Joly hopes to prevent Stellantis from selling its Brampton, Ont., assembly plant to Roshel, stating Ottawa has "put an aggressive package" to block the deal and remains "still in solution mode to prevent the sale."
- Stellantis announced Thursday it intends to repay only $24 million in federal support for the Brampton facility's retooling, though Joly warned the company could owe "hundreds of millions of dollars" if it proceeds with the sale.
- Ontario Economic Development Minister Vic Fedeli said support is available if the company can "buy some time" rather than selling, as officials coordinate with the union representing more than 9,000 Stellantis workers.
- Federal and provincial officials plan to meet with global CEO Antonio Filosa following Thursday's discussion with Stellantis Canada CEO Trevor Longley, where Joly will present "new scenarios."
- The facility's future remains central to Canada's electric vehicle manufacturing strategy as officials work to preserve domestic production and regional employment amid broader industrial pressures.
