We're following very closely the different deals struck by the White House, the deals with Japan and Korea, which were very much linked to the auto sector, and the deal with the EU, which was very important for the EU. At the same time, we followed what the U.S. Supreme Court said regarding the different tariffs. We know there will continue to be unpredictability.
The Prime Minister is engaged in negotiations with the U.S. We know that the auto sector is key to that deal. Meanwhile, we're trying to continue to have investments, notwithstanding the uncertainty.
When you look at the different investments that have been made since the beginning of the trade war, there has been increased production by Honda and Toyota, which is 75% of our production at this point. At the NextStar facility, there are 2,500 new jobs. A third shift was also opened at Stellantis, in Ms. Borrelli's riding. A new investment of $690 million was announced last week by GM. This is good news, notwithstanding. We're also working with Ford as it finalizes its retooling and the biggest investments in Ford's history in Canada. That's also good news.
We learn from history. When you look at what happened in the 1980s, you see that car plants were being shut down across the country. It was mainly the D3 closing, shutting down car plants in my home province and in Ontario. We brought in Japanese automakers, and we worked. The Liberal government under Pierre Elliott Trudeau did that, and eventually, it was activated and put into place by the Conservative government of Brian Mulroney.
Forty years later, we're inspired by what happened. We diversify. We change our ways of doing things. We don't take anything for granted. Being able to bring new players here, not only from Europe but also from China, to work with our auto parts companies—Linamar, Magna and Martinrea—is something that we think can be inspired by what we did in the 1980s. This is the ethos of our strategy. This is what we've been able to work with.
We won't sit idle while decisions made south of the border affect our auto workers. We'll not only fight for different ways to protect their jobs, but also make sure that we're attracting new investments.
