Canada Strike Hits GM Workers in U.S.
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
General Motors laid off second-shift workers at a Detroit Cadillac plant, the latest Americans caught in the cross fire of a strike against the auto maker in Canada. Already, the 10-day-old strike by the Canadian Auto Workers union has shut down all GM plants across Canada and has been blamed for hundreds of layoffs at American GM plants that depend on factories struck by CAW. The Cadillac plant here depends on trim parts from a Windsor, Canada, plant to make Eldorados, Sevilles and DeVilles.
