Thought That
I should post this here after digging into an article in the LBN.

CAW ratifies Chrysler deal
None of the Canadian plants are targeted to make Fiat vehicles in the future, said the union chief.

Chrysler workers approve deal reached by company, CAW
Chrysler LLC has until April 30 to negotiate an alliance with the Italian automaker Fiat and also to reach deals with its American workers and its bondholders to qualify for U.S. and Canadian government loans.

On Sunday night, the United Auto Workers union said it had reached a deal with the company.

Without a restructuring plan that the governments find acceptable, Chrysler would likely file for bankruptcy protection or even liquidate its assets.

Lewenza said Chrysler told him it plans to split into two parts if it files for bankruptcy protection: one that will continue to operate with the help of an alliance with Fiat and another that will liquidate its assets.

So perhaps some of you would contact your MP and MPP in Ontario and the CAW to let them know that the Canadian governments and the CAW are being snoorked!
