The union representing workers at Stellantis began contract talks with the U.S. automaker today, marking the start of the final round of its bargaining with the Detroit Three.
Unifor has already ratified new collective agreements with Ford Motor Co. and General Motors in Canada this summer.
The union typically uses pattern bargaining for its auto sector negotiations, setting terms it hopes to replicate with other companies.
Last month, the union said it received notice that Stellantis was considering the closure and sale of its Brampton, Ont., assembly plant, which has been idled since 2023.
The Brampton plant had been slated to be retooled for Jeep production, a process that began early in 2024, before the company paused the plan in early 2025.
It later announced it was moving production of the Jeep Compass to the U.S., leaving the plant idled indefinitely.
