TREE NEWS update: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said armored vehicle maker Roshel’s takeover of a Stellantis NV plant is part of the solution.

He did not provide further details on the terms or timing of the transaction.
Carney: Roshel taking over Stellantis plant part of the solution
The significance here is less about the deal's terms, which remain undisclosed, than about the signal a prime ministerial endorsement sends for defense-linked manufacturing absorbing idle auto capacity. It affects the plant's workforce, the local supply chain, and Roshel's standing as a defense contractor, while Stellantis's retreat from the site fits a broader pattern of automakers shedding footprint. With no terms or timing disclosed, whether the takeover moves beyond a political talking point into a completed, operating conversion is the open question.
