meh.... that company should have folded a long time ago.
Anyone employed there should have been paying attention for the last 15 years, and if they weren't planning long term to find another job or train themselves while working there, can't say I have any sympathy for them.
Lots of folks don't have the capacity or luxury to be highly mobile with regard to their employment. Even if they did, these plant closures are just the beginning. Even those you are praising that do have the high skills and mobility will be facing this same fate in the days ahead. There's no safe zone for solid future employment for any of us.
I'll always have sympathy for working people just trying to work scratching out a living.
Other companies like Honda and Toyota will just slip into these plants, and rehire the workers. It's great that the US is trying to bring manufacturing back, but the rest of the world will have no appetite for their products by the time it's all done.
Economics has nothing to do with my opinion.
That companies products are shit, and have been for years.
The only reason they stick around is because of tax dollars propping them up, which could instead be put towards other more profitable and sustainable industries.
Ontario doesn't need that car plant. It has better ones.
