Ontario Premier Doug Ford says he doesn’t know what the federal government means as it calls for the province to pay its “fair share” in a deal with automaker Stellantis that appears to be in jeopardy.
Ford says the province and federal government are working hard to ensure Stellantis doesn’t pull out of jointly building an electric vehicle battery plant with LG Energy Solution in Windsor, Ont., but he is “disappointed“ with how Ottawa has handled the issue.
