@dd Maybe he plays the fiddle and will do jig and reels in the maritime provinces.
CBC news is cr-p. Always has been. They write an article about ONE guy and somehow that represents the thousands that work there. And the article says he's moving to Nova Scotia for better job prospects? If that's true, he's an id--t. He'll be broke and unemployed for the rest of his life in NS. But CBC does not print truth, they print what the gov't tells them to print. If he was serious about getting rehired somewhere, he'd be taking advantage of the retraining that is GM is likely offering and get out of car manufacturing in Canada.
They can focus on increasing sales in Canada, so the factory will produce for the local market instead of export.
