Spend about an hour a day reading all the comments on this site but don't think I've seen any comments or concerns about the Camaro being built in Canada. Read in the local paper today that 15 of the 21 plants in the U.S. will shut down for up to 9 weeks starting at the end of May. But the workers will still get 72 percent of there salaries while there home during the rough months of June and July.

This shouldn't affect the building of the Camaro alot of us have on order but I continue to wonder why GM didn't pick a plant in the U.S. to refit and build their hottest commodity. I'm constantly preaching to people at work about buying American then I support workers in another country.
