Well, odds are chrysler will get the same deal that the CAW agreed to with GM. As for the taxes, give them the loan, then they can pay the taxes, oh and Chrysler should ask for an extra half billion to cover the cost. Yes, that is bass ackwards but its Chrysler talking to the Government so it should make sense for all parties involved.

They should also make it clear how much income tax their workers collectively pay, and see if the government would like to see that money go away.

At any rate, I think this is more of a bluff than a threat. Chrysler's best vehicles are built in Canada, the 300/Charger/Challenger and the minivans. Hell, they're only good products. I can't see them simply moving them to Mexico, next product lifecycle maybe. But I still doubt it. Canadian labour costs are less than in the US (mostly from reduced healthcare cost) for equal or superior quality, something that can't be said for Mexico. Thats why we crank out 2x as many cars and trucks per capita than you do. Its in Chryslers best interest to stay here.
