Canada threatens Jeep-maker over possible US move

Canada threatens legal action against Stellantis for planning to move Jeep Compass production to the US, violating a commitment to stay in Brampton. Industry Minister Mélanie Joly warns of legal consequences for reneging on the agreement, citing billions in financial support to the automaker. Despite the investment in the US, Stellantis claims it is expanding in Canada and creating new jobs at its Windsor plant, hinting at plans for the Brampton facility post-discussions with the Canadian government. The move puts Canadian jobs at risk, prompting government efforts to protect Stellantis staff and secure new opportunities locally.
