Trudeau gave VW 16 billion $CDN for a EV factory in Canada.
And Chrysler (Stellantis) complained since they were building as well, they should get their own 16 billion. So they will get 19.
Note for proportional size spending for the US gov’t, multiply by 10. ($350 billion!)
Never knew until recently, after watching a British series on WWII war production, that it was a British military officer who took control of the VW factory, and got it up and running again before being handed back to the Germans.
