Joly set to hold meeting in Toronto with Stellantis, union and Ontario minister

Nov 12, 2026 | 3:00 AM

TORONTO — Industry Minister Mélanie Joly is set to hold a four-way meeting today with automaker Stellantis, the union representing its more than 9,000 workers in Canada, and representatives of the Ontario government.

The discussions in Toronto come days after Stellantis announced it was selling its Brampton, Ont. assembly plant to Canadian armoured vehicle manufacturer Roshel for an undisclosed amount.

More than 2,000 workers have been laid off from the plant since it was idled in 2023.

Collective bargaining negotiations between Stellantis and Unifor broke down in September after the automaker signed a memorandum of understanding with Roshel to target a sale of the facility.
