GM is pausing production of its electric commercial vans at its Ontario plant due to slow sales, leading to temporary layoffs of 1,200 workers. The company plans to retool the facility for the 2026 model year, with production resuming in October 2025 on a single shift, resulting in nearly 500 permanent layoffs. The decision, not linked to new auto tariffs, has been met with concern from union leaders and politicians, who emphasize the need to support affected workers and the Canadian auto industry.
