Union believes Stellantis has divested Brampton auto plant
Unifor, the union representing Stellantis workers, believes the automaker has sold its inactive assembly plant located in Brampton, Ontario.
The union stated it engaged in discussions with Stellantis on Friday regarding reports of a sale, but the company declined to either confirm or deny the transaction.
According to Unifor, this lack of confirmation is being viewed as an acknowledgement that the Brampton assembly plant has indeed been sold. In September, Stellantis entered into a memorandum of understanding with Roshel, a Brampton-based armoured vehicle manufacturer, outlining a possible sale of the facility.
Both Stellantis and Roshel have issued statements indicating they have “nothing to announce” regarding the potential sale.
Over 2,000 workers were laid off from the Brampton plant when it ceased operations in 2023.
Just last month, Stellantis employees approved a strike mandate for their union, as negotiations stalled over critical concerns including job security and the future of the Brampton plant.
This report was initially published by The Canadian Press on November 6, 2026.
