Unifor plans to hold a strike vote involving Stellantis in mid-October, raising the prospect of industrial action as the union presses for the future of Brampton Assembly.
The union has described a strike as a last resort rather than its preferred outcome. However, it says it is prepared to fight to protect Brampton Assembly’s future.
The ballot leaves the immediate outcome unresolved, but it gives the union a formal opportunity to measure support for potential action. The plant’s outlook has become the central issue in Unifor’s position.
The developing dispute puts renewed focus on the relationship between Stellantis and its workforce at a time when assembly capacity remains a strategic concern for the industry. The planned vote was reported by Carscoops.
