Trudeau confronted with unions’ concerns about sidelining of Canadian workers at Windsor EV plant

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was told Monday by a top union leader that grave concerns remain about the hiring of foreign workers at a flagship EV battery plant in Windsor, Ont., when skilled Canadians are available to do the jobs.

In a keynote discussion with the Prime Minister at the annual conference of Canada’s Building Trades Unions in Gatineau, union leader Sean Strickland told Mr. Trudeau that the concerns that emerged last year about the hiring of hundreds of Korean and Japanese workers at the EV factory have yet to be resolved.
