Industry Minister Mélanie Joly says Honda Canada’s CEO assured her that no Canadian jobs will be lost or modified, despite the company delaying $15 billion in electric vehicle (EV) investments in the country.
Joly said in a statement posted to social media on May 14 that she spoke with Honda Canada President and CEO Dave Jamieson, who told her that “workers will keep their good-paying jobs and working conditions won’t change.”
