Strike Closes GM Plant in Canada: General Motors Corp., still recovering from an Ohio parts plant strike that idled workers across North America, suffered another blow when workers at its joint-venture plant with Suzuki Motor Corp. walked out. The 2,100 workers at the assembly plant in Ingersoll, Ontario, say their wages and working conditions lag those of other Canadian employees of the Big Three auto makers. The Ingersoll plant produces the Suzuki Swift and Geo Metro subcompacts and the Suzuki Sidekick and Geo Tracker sport utility vehicles.
