That might be an argument for not buying a car. Saying “auto workers make too much money and have too generous a pension, so, forget it, I'm going to ride a bike” is not an argument for not buying a CAW-made car, because pension and benefits in Japan, in Germany, and in the United States are all substantially higher than they are in Canada. The total labour cost is higher in those jurisdictions than it is here. The benefits that we've negotiated over the years reflect the productivity of the industry. Each auto worker on an assembly line in Canada generates $300,000 of value-added per year, and that is the basis for it being the high-income industry it is. So I don't think there's a connection.
I think consumers will go and buy what they think has good vehicle value. Vehicle prices have been declining substantially in recent years, in part because of the productivity. I think it's more the general consumer confidence and access to credit that explain the downturn in sales today.
