Good morning and welcome. We are very pleased to welcome you today.
The General Motors plant in Sainte-Thérèse was in my riding. I saw when the plant was shut down and demolished. It was in operation for 40 years in Boisbriand. That is awful. I understand how Mr. Emerson feels about the retirees and all those affected.
In my riding, we have the company called Raufoss Technology, a division of Neuman Aluminium, which manufactures aluminum parts that you would surely see on the assembly lines of General Motors and Chrysler these days.
Based on TPP's rules of origin on original automotive parts, Unifor forecasts a loss of 20,000 jobs, which you mentioned earlier.
First, there are the workers in assembly plants and, second, there are the workers who make the parts. Do you think there will be different impacts on those making the parts and those working in assembly plants? Do you think there will be a difference in terms of jobs?
