GENERAL MOTORS CO workers in Canada approved a labor agreement on Sunday adding heavy-duty truck production in Ontario, committing over C$1B in local investments. The deal lands as the United States weighs a tariff increase to 50% on Canadian automotive imports by January 1, 2027. The cross-border tariff standoff threatens supply chains that account for 17% of the automaker's Chevrolet Silverado assembly output.
