Carney calls Stellantis' planned sale of Ontario plant a 'betrayal' to obligations to Canada
Stellantis announced last year that it was shifting planned production of the Jeep Compass from Brampton to Belvedere, Ill., unleashing a political firestorm over the public funding the company has received.
A Stellantis spokesperson said it’s offered to voluntarily repay money it received for the original Brampton retooling plan, but citing confidentiality wouldn’t disclose specific numbers.
"Being informed or being aware of some aspects is not the same as Stellantis providing a global solution for those workers at the plant, which is their obligation," Carney said while at a European Political Community meeting in Dublin, Ireland.
