Ford Reopens Ontario Facility

Around a week ago, the Ford Motor Company has announced that they would be opening the doors again of its facility located in Windsor, Ontario. This has been confirmed by Dalton McGuinty, the Ontario Premier, when he announced that he would also be present at the reopening of the plant and he would be with some of the company’s officials. No details were given however regarding the reopening of the Ford facility.

This Ford facility in Ontario, Canada is known as the Essex Engine Plant and the car maker has disclosed that the plant would now be responsible for the creation and manufacture of V8 engines which would be fuel efficient. The reopening would also bring in more jobs for people in the area.

Some sources have mentioned that the government of Ontario would be shelling out around $17 million to help Ford’s investment in the Essex Engine plant which amounts to $186 million. This however has yet to be confirmed.
