they are closing plant 3 in oshawa.. also more plants around canada.
taking place in 2008 though.
but they are getting rid of the 3rd shift as of next year.
Yep... Buzz Hargrove should be proud of his union today. They have cost me 3 jobs by making 3 factories go under with their union promises. B@stards, looks good on them. Oh well, they can go to Woodstock and work for Toyota. Ooops, I forgot, no union there...

DETROIT -- General Motors plans to cut 30,000 jobs, shut down four assembly plants and four stamping and powertrain plants and trim production at several other plants by the end of 2008, CEO Rick Wagoner said Monday.
The moves will help boost GM's total cost savings to about $7 billion, Wagoner said.
The assembly plants to close are:
Oklahoma City. It will close in early 2006.
Lansing Craft Centre in Lansing, Mich. It will close in mid-2006.
The Doraville, Ga., minivan plant will close in 2008.
The Oshawa, Ontario, car plant No. 2 will close in 2008.
GM will close these stamping and powertrain plants:
The Lansing, Mich., stamping plant will be closed in 2006.
The Pittsburgh stamping plant will be closed in 2007.
The St. Catharines, Ontario, Street West powertrain parts plant will be closed in 2008.
The Flint North plant in Flint, Mich., which builds the 3.8-liter V-6 engine, will close in 2008.
GM also will reduce production at these facilities:
Line No. 1 of the Saturn plant in Spring Hill, Tenn., will be shut down at the end of next year.
The third shift at the Oshawa, Ontario, car plant No. 1 will be dropped in the middle of next year.
The third shift at the Moraine, Ohio, truck plant will be cut in 2006.
GM also will close a parts distribution center in Portland, Ore., in 2006, while the parts distribution center in St. Louis will be converted to a crash parts warehouse.
In 2007, GM will close a parts processing center in Ypsilanti, Mich. It will close another parts processing center that year, GM said, but the site has not yet been determined.

way to go buzz
AMEN to that...
I dont have anything bad to say about the workers, it's the union that messes with their minds. I mean really, these people had to see this coming, but Buzz and the boys do a damn good propaganda campaign. They played us all for fools. Buzz must feel pretty dumb right about now.
