CBC News reports that Stellantis has agreed to sell its idled Brampton, Ontario, assembly plant — idled since 2023, when more than 2,000 workers were laid off — to Canadian armoured vehicle maker Roshel Inc. for an undisclosed amount, as contract talks between Stellantis and Unifor, whose members voted 97.3 per cent for a strike mandate, remain at an impasse. Unifor president Lana Payne calls the sale a worst-case scenario and betrayal of workers, while Industry Minister Mélanie Joly, Trade Minister Maninder Sidhu, and Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown press Stellantis to honour its commitments, with Joly calling a meeting for the week of 9 November 2026.
