www.cbc.ca/cp/business/050630/b0630102.html Those will likely be the last as they are already commited. Toyota will be building in canada in the future. Unskilled Americans (factory workers) are too stupid to work an assembly line. Here is a tid bit on what I was talking about.

This is why I have all Craftsman hand tools. Y'all try to chase down a MAC or Snap-On truck when you break a wrench, and need one RIGHT now. Sears? It's always open when I break something. No waiting on a truck. |

Actually, I just got a DeWalt D28402K 4 1/2" grinder for Christmas... made in China as well. Worst part, there is a piece in the kit box that my company helped design, that is now made in China. |

Well Fat, you ain’t nothing but a motherfucking liar and a piece of shit. Gerry Fedchun does not work for Toyota. He is the president of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association. You misrepresent the entire Toyota company. Then have the gall to say that factory workers are too stupid. Go back to your fucking hole in the ground, you motherfucking troll!! READ THE ENTIRE FUCKING ARTICLE!!
Ban me if needed, I hate fucking liars!! The price is worth it. |

You cant dispute the fact that what he said is true. Why do you think they DENIED the offer to MORE THAN DOUBLE the incentives made by Cities in the United States? Apparently there is no profit in building in the U.S. Even if the incentives are more than doubled. THAT MY FRIEND, IS SAYING SOMETHING! And of course Dennis Cuneo is going to try to protect the image of his workers. I would expect nothing less. |

You are one stupid motherfucker. "Dennis Cuneo, senior vice president of Toyota's North American operations, took exception to Fedchun's comments in a letter Thursday" and As for Fedchun's claims that Honda has had to use pictures to train its workers, Morrison said other than engineering diagrams that all manufacturers use, that is not true. "No, we have not had to do that," he said. Neal Wade, executive director of the Alabama Development Office, said he and Gov. Bob Riley were made aware of the comments Thursday. "These comments came out of left field and obviously do not reflect Toyota's feelings or the feelings of any of the other manufacturers," he said." |

You can call Fedchun a liar all you want (me too for that matter). The fact remains that TOYOTA wanted canadien workers over Americans despite the fact that the money offered was more than doubled. NEWS FLASH! Toyota made the choice not Fedchun. |

Items like the rachets, pry bars, etc were made out in TX while all the sockets are made here in NC. All the packaging of the toolkits is also done here in NC. Also, Craftsman, KD, and NAPA sockets are all made on the same machines. Only difference is in their heat-treating. |

|
Don't mind if I do. You're a motherfucking, misrepresenting liar. |

|
Sometimes my Craftsman sockets scare me. One time while I was pulling the wheel off one of our vehicles the Craftsman 1/2 drive socket literally exploded. |
|
|
Then chalk one up for the good guys. |

You and I really should meet and settle our differences. |

I don’t think you will be working for Toyota very long. With an attitude like yours you won’t fit in very well. Everyone in San Antonio talks about Toyota like it was their savior and how they were going to get this great job and life will be so much better for them. The VAST majority of applicants were denied employment. Why? Take a guess! You live there. As do I. I would be willing to bet 50% or more wont make it 3 years. I understand your attitude being from a union and all. |

I think we're getting way off topic here,but one very important reason why Toyota is/will be in Ontario is because it's closer to Toyota's suppliers(which is why GM's Doraville GA plant is on the chopping block,and Ford's Atlanta plant may be too,and why,for the most part,there are no car plants on the East coast,Ford's Norfolk Truck and GMs Wilmington DE plant excepted) JIT is a central theme in Japanese auto manufacturing.

and how would we do that? |
