Oshawa , Ontario , has been the city of auto workers for more than a century .

Autoworkers have weathered economic recessions, layoffs and devastating plant closures.

But nothing has prepared them for the cloud of uncertainty brought on by U.S. President Donald Trump ’s tariffs.

Trump has said his goal is to move manufacturing jobs back to the United States .

Trump ’s tariffs have already triggered a two-week shutdown at the Stellantis assembly plant in Windsor, Ont ., and Premier Doug Ford has said he is very concerned about the province's auto industry.

Oshawa has such deep roots when it comes to automotive, and we have such a storied history of building quality vehicles that it is impossible to imagine that coming to an end,” says NDP member of provincial parliament.
