Standing alongside and sharing a microphone with Stellantis COO North America Mark Stewart at the Brampton Assembly Plant, Unifor President Lana Payne signalled that Canada’s auto union will take a different approach to this summer’s contract negotiations than its union counterpart in the United States.
Payne told reporters in Brampton that she respects the “great job” the UAW is doing representing its members, but Unifor is a different union and intends to take a different approach. In 2020, the union took the unusual step of negotiating three- as opposed to four-year contracts with the three automakers, which put collective agreements for auto workers in both Canada and the United States on track to expire simultaneously for the first time since 1999.
Unifor has pointed to higher wages, improved pensions, and support during the retooling process as several of its key priorities for this round of bargaining.Payne said the union also hopes to “wiggle” more investment dollars out of Stellantis to add to the red-hot Canadian auto industry’s running tally of recent spending.
