GM 加拿大因EV需求疲软和美国电池进口不足, 在Ingersoll的CAMI工厂解雇了数百人, GM Canada laid off hundreds at Ingersoll’s CAMI plant due to weak EV demand and U.S. battery imports, ending hopes from a $1 billion retooling.

克里斯汀·帕拉代斯 （Kristin Paradise） 和坎迪斯·帕拉代斯 （Candice Paradise） 是安大略省英格索尔 CAMI 装配厂的长期工人，在通用汽车加拿大公司将裁员期限延长至 2025 年 11 月 17 日后，他们是数百名被解雇的人之一。 Kristin and Candice Paradise, longtime workers at the CAMI Assembly plant in Ingersoll, Ont., are among hundreds laid off after General Motors Canada extended job cuts through November 17, 2025. 他们于2024年迁至新的37 000平方米电池厂,预期就业稳定,但BrightDrop电车销售缓慢,决定从美国进口电池停产。 They had moved to the new 37,000-square-metre battery plant in 2024 expecting stable employment, but slow sales of BrightDrop electric vans and a decision to import batteries from the U.S. halted production. 该公司引述了市场需求和存货管理,而工会领导人则说政治压力影响了这一举动。 The company cited market demand and inventory management, while union leaders say political pressures influenced the move. 只有400名工人返回一次轮班,使包括天堂姐妹在内的许多人对其未来前途感到不确定。 Only 400 workers returned for a single shift, leaving many, including the Paradise sisters, uncertain about their futures. 两位女性自2010年代初就在CAMI工作, 现在正在探索新的职业 - - 克里斯在贸易, 坎迪斯在劳工关系 - - 在电厂的10亿美元改装未能在不断变化的电动汽车市场条件下提供持续的工作机会之后. Both women, who have worked at CAMI since the early 2010s, are now exploring new careers—Kristin in the trades, Candice in labor relations—after the $1 billion retooling of the plant failed to deliver sustained jobs amid shifting EV market conditions.
