"Comparing Canadian and US Auto Workers: Perspectives from Detroit Auto Show Visitors"
Visitors at the Detroit auto show suggest that U.S. autoworkers should follow the example of their Canadian counterparts, who recently reached a new three-year tentative deal with Ford Motor Co. that includes significant wage increases. Meanwhile, the United Auto Workers (UAW) remains on strike against General Motors Co. and Stellantis NV, with some auto show visitors expressing mixed opinions about the strike. While some believe the pay and benefits of American autoworkers are still good, others worry about the impact of the strike on the economy and inflation.
