It's right to say that over time, depending on what time frame you're looking at, Canada's share of the North American production footprint has fallen. A lot of that can be explained over time—at least a twenty-year time frame—with rising assembly capacity built in Mexico with new greenfield sites. It's roughly timed with the onset of NAFTA a number of years later.
We have seen declines. They've borne out in employment numbers. We're short about 35,000 assembly and parts jobs from where we were at the turn of the millennium. It's a longer time frame, but it's still significant. It's only been recently that we've been seeing an uptick in some of that and some green shoots with the Oshawa assembly coming back online and new product investments coming to Oakville, Ingersoll and soon to be coming to Windsor. Things like this throw a huge wrench in those plans at the worst possible time you can imagine.
Yes, I would agree with your statement.
