LILLEY UNLEASHED: Trudeau and his government have botched the Stellantis EV battery plant deal

- Sun political columnist Brian Lilley explains how Justin Trudeau’s government is lashing out at the Doug Ford government as the planned electric vehicle battery plant, one of the biggest industrial investments in Canadian history is under threat due to Joe Biden. Work stopped Monday on the Stellantis-LG battery plant in Windsor, Ont., with the company saying in a statement that the Trudeau government hasn’t delivered what is needed to get the plant built.
Just another Turdeau failure in a very long long line of failures.
Why isn’t he held accountable for this? It’s also linked with the creation of job opportunities in the Quebec province. Money has been already given. Where does it all go? In their pockets?
Agreed
If he wasn't failing at something, then we'd be proven right that he's done nothing for the country.
You are so right, Stunt Guy - another Trudeau failure in a very long line of failures and SCANDALS, too!
@@sweetnostrils4114 Dumb = Trudeau
Dumber = his supporters
Buying jobs, is not the same as creating them!!
one million dollars per job.... is not smart. esp when you consider that canada has the natural resources to produce lithium batters. we have a workforce with subsidized healthcare and an educated workforce. what on earth were liberals thinking? or do they think these days? the VW negotiation team was brilliant.
And they are expensive
sure - but buying jobs has been the auto industry for decades. It's really more about the guy who dropped out of high school working the brake press and the spot welder making $20 than the guy who was born into the autoworkers' union making $70, because if the assembly plant shifts, then the cut metal components guys - the labourers, truckers, welders, engineers, draughtsmen, etc. - all shift.
I'm sure as dumb as Trudeau is, even he has to know the battery plant won't be a good investment for Canada. But hey, when has Trudeau ever done anything for the benefit of Canada? This is about virtue signaling and getting richer.
Creating more government jobs is not creating real employment.
How about we have a country where business's want to invest, not because of subsidies or paying them billions in taxpayer money, but because it makes good business sense. FFS
cant because of globalism , now you have to compete with places that use slave labor
It's just too simple. They opt for the apex of absurd and wasteful ideas.
Quite simply, because that is not what they want. Whether that is hard to believe or not, it is the truth.
I'm all for a shift away from the current model of Stalinism with Westminster characteristics, but you need to get that as a pro-market guy, in this part of the world, you are as ideologically irrelevant as a pro-speech guy, and there are good odds that any significant pressure for change swings things more toward the communism end of things than the capitalism end of things.
@@williaminnes6635 Well that sucks..
i don't want my tax dollars going to any of this. Nothing against electric cars -but stop subsidising them.
Agreed
I don't thing job creation should cost tax payers 3-4,000,000 per Position lollll
this is Bananas
We can't get a Pipeline finished.....
Id prefer hydrogen its far cleaner than any EV
this is the liberal way, they are so dumb, thet keep getting played for our money
"Trudeau botched the..........." is just par for the course at this point.
Trudeau should be named can't get right
Absolutely, what's new? Nothing.
Give us an update when something surprising happens - like when the little twerp finally faces some consequences for his shit leadership.
Couldn't have said it better myself!
@@Roseknight1 Ya can't do that!! Our POS Biden has that name here now! LOL

Awdsmfafoothimaaafootafootwhscuseme . yup you got a potato that can't get right
Or we could just stop corporate welfare, problem solved.
Volkswagen are the ones who lied about diesel emissions.
I couldn't agree more.
-- some corporate welfare is sometimes needed. but the VW deal was exponentially stupid. we already have the resources to make lithium batteries... we have public benefits to employees and an educated workforce. this was crazy stupid. this equates to one million per employee. VW has a brilliant negotiation team.
XD
Why is it so hard to just stop giving billions to corporations that already have billions?! :P
Face painter can't get kick backs from big companies to the Trudeau fund if he stops giving them their corporate welfare.
I love it when Trudeau fails, just means bigger majority for Pierre. Sad though people are going to be out a job but can't wait for Trudeau and most of his MP to be out of theirs.
I think that the vast majority of Canadians feel the same way as you do!
Ok I’m in
Careful, there is a lot of stupidity people out there.
I Agree 1000000000 Percent
Sadly there are a lot of woke stupid people in this country that are dependant on turdos little carrots I mean pittance checks that he passes out like candy
If EV is the next big thing, they don't need any subsidy.
Good point! The government did provide many grants to get their project going… nobody wants EV here in Canada we don’t have sun and it’s cold! Batterie costs are ridiculous! It’s a scam to enriched themselves. Why do we have to combine Trudeau and Biden? It’s a recipe for DISASTER
It's about jobs in Ontario. Wise up.
hope the auto manufacturers realize evs won't work in saskatchewan and keep building gas and diesel autos
EVs won't last into the next decade once more and more people wake up and see how the battery industry is worse for the environment than the gasoline industry. Add in the fact that child slave labor in Africa is being used to dig around in the mud for cobalt.
But hey, as long as you can place an order for a new Tesla who cares? Right?
@@sean367 it's about return money on kick backs, wise up.
None of this should involve taxpayer money. Same goes for Ukraine and any other country. Hen will people realize Canada is financially broke.
ontario is on course to financial collapse. drummon report commissioned by kathleen wynn. of which she did nothing about. canada on a per capita debt ratio is equal to what greece was when they went belly up and had to suffer through german bailout and austerity. eventually a political party will have to instill some austerity in canada - likely conservative.... torontonians will hate that and vote in the devil again. we all know how this goes. everyone wants free stuff without paying the piper.

Ukraine is in dire need of help. But are you at least fine with voluntary donations to the Ukrainian people.
@@ismaelbauman2156 give them all your money......no one Cares.....but at least use tax money to help canadians. ...not Foreign countries all over the world!!..... why break canada for other nations!!
canada derves this for electing a dumb idiot for PM three times.. hoe many times will canada make the same mistake?
How the HELL is this party still in power....
Singh, that's how. That 13 billion dollars to Volkswagen would have fixed a lot of teeth but Singh needs that pension so we'll endure Fruiteau for 2 more years. Is it worth it Singh?? At least Canada knows who you are now. All for yourself and to hell with Canada!!

Imagine a few days of no Trudeau and no Freeland on the news or anywhere .
Now that is UTOPIA
I don't know if it's coverage of them being sent to prison (not Club Med prison) or their passing that's worth a couple of days of watching
I can't Wait
Take a politics and new break. It's easy not to see them. Healthy too, if you're very passionate about it
Good comment, Jan. Canadians can have MANY days of no Trudeau and no Freeland if we all smarten up and do the right thing by voting for Pierre Poilievre in the next election!
What is the difference between giving a company 13 billion dollars or spending 13 billion dollars on welfare? This is nothing more than another ESG project!
Only Turdoh could botch the botch!! Lolol
In all common sense reality the ability to spend any money should be taken completely away from Trudeau. He is spending like a drunk sailor on a Saturday night without any business sense whatsoever. He plays God with taxpayers money and is setting up at least 5 generations to pay down the insane debt he has incurred. If companies can't finance their own business...they shouldn't be in business. Our government was never intended to be a Roulette wheel.
corporate fascism is a wonderful thing, for corporations
At this point, nobody is getting too picky about that sort of thing. You aren't going to get the social equity crew to go along quietly with a more pro-market perspective, since their whole objective is to spread misery in order to reduce the entire planet to slavery, so if things are going to move, they are going to require subsidies. That's all there is to it.
Trudeau doesn't care as long as his unicorn and rainbow utopian dreams are fulfilled, it isn't his money he's throwing around.
NO MATTER HOW EDUCATED, TALENTED, RICH OR COOL YOU BELIEVE YOU ARE, HOW YOU TREAT PEOPLE ULTIMATELY TELLS IT ALL.

I can feel myself getting DumBer just listening to you !
I’m 100 % ready to vote ☑️ you out
I’m 100% to vote ☑️ Poilievre!!
This is so true. Arrogant, self-righteous and entitled spoiled brat Justin Trudeau thinks that he is above the law and above everybody else. Egotistical and jet-setting Justin thinks that because he has a famous last name, he can do whatever he darn well wants and this smug, elitist attitude has seriously turned Canadians off over time!
Absolutely!!! Long overdue to vote Justin Trudeau & the Liberals out!!!
Keep a eye on who your mayor is also.. school board.. mp’s etc.. we need to clean house
@@cynthiaabada3961 Flush it
Liberals NDP let it make skid marks on the way out.
I’m 100% to vote ☑️ Poilievre!!
Not Talented, not cool, not educated, only rich and getting richer at our expense.
Biden doesn’t know where he is half the time. 😂
And Trudeau is chronically stoned
Biden has dementia, hes just a puppet
Seeing as the public only gets small glimpses of Biden, I'd say its closer to 80% of the time.
Both are equally stund
If Canadians would vote for an incompetent loser like Trudeau then it is for sure they would vote for a mentally compromised person like Biden.
The VW deal was ridiculous too.
We need to stop giving out government grants to wealthy corporations. IF we had less restrictive laws and the right infrastructure, corporations would CHOOSE to invest their own money in Canada.
Absolutely... These billions would have gone a long way if made available to all corporations in this country not just a select couple
Nobody wants to do business in Canada or with Canadians. It's grotesque
🤷 makes sense
Hi Canadian loser. Canada's consumer market isn't a prize for any business. The Canadian lacks disposable income and lack population. The Canadian labor market is no prize for any business to locate into ...why invest and then have to over pay Canadian workers above what they are worth and can produce just because their government "made up of loser Canadians" demands 50% in taxes..... You are in a shit hole.
It's the old, I scratch your back, and you grease my palm with major kickbacks. Trudeau has made a fortune doing this. Trudeau has probably never imagined in his wildest dreams how much money there is to be made when you're racketeering.
The batteries 🔋 they are talking about are obsolete! 💸💸💸💸💸
Trudeau is not a businessman. We cannot survive this wish list agenda without sound financial background and forethought. I'm sickened daily by these promises and billions of dollars of off handed commitments that have no equitable standard. Please please leave office Justin and let a sound and knowledgable government take control. PLEASE!!!
Oh that will never happen because he's a narcissist he will have to be booted out
Trudolf definitely got the Midas touch. Everything Blackface touches, turns into one fuckup after another.
100% priceless
Except when he's going on vacation
Or going to London to see the king as he walks down the road looking like he's the most important person there that was sickening to watch I mean his head was so high and then we see it telling his wife to smile this guy is such a looser and he proves it every single day
A substitute drama teacher only has one job … not to diddle the students. So, just another in a long line of botched jobs for Justin?

He couldn't help himself, he just had to have that 14 year old. West Grey Point Academy is world famous now for what he did there!
After what the Wynn government did to Ontario, spending billions and getting nothing, makes it very hard to understand how anyone could vote Lieberal.
Exactly!
Two words....public servants. The liberals bought them off years ago. And their numbers are growing in leaps and bounds.
I sense a HUGE carbon tax increase to pay for these deals. How many dollars will it cost taxpayers for every job created to make a Trudeau look good.
In Ontario 43 cents taxes on gas in July its gets even more in Jan 2024 its all a scam I work automotive in Ontario and they are making boat loads of cash 💸 💰 for the corporation lmfao 70 cent raise for the employees to help combat inflation Ford is Trudeau in disguise 🥸 🤣 😂
this 1 billion dollar lending he plans will take canadian taxpayers over 30 years to pay off ..this is whats reported and evs are a fail and worse than gas
13 billion for 2,500 jobs is 5 million per job. It has to stop. No subsidies to anyone. Fix the regulations and cut taxes will bring them running.
We're paying back VW's diselgate fines! What has VW acheived so far in EV that deserves so much money?
And 30,000 spin off jobs? Really?
Liberals failed math!
5 million for jobs that will likely not afford homes for employees, making 60,000k in urban Ontario was great in the 1980s but isnt worth 5 million to the company in 2023.
WE MUST GET THESE NUTS OUT NO MATTER WHAT WE AS A SOCIETY MUST DO!!! ALL OF US. SENATE ...DO YOUR JOB AND STOP BOWNG TO CORRUPTION AND FEAR!!!
I've been saying this as soon as he got voted in the very first time he got voted in before he started all his bullshit I didn't like him or trust him for whatever reason don't know
They always point at someone else when they mess it up which is pretty well all the time. Time for a new government and for Jagmeet to stop aiding and abetting this disaster of a government.
Good comment, David and I agree with you completely. Pierre Poilievre for Prime Minister!
Ford should know better, it’s not the first time JT turns on Ford every chance he gets, Ford should wake up and smell the roses on whom he’s dealing with.
Yeah but ford is just has crooked as Trudeau
Thats because his nose is far up someones you know what Ford looks more like a liebral than a Conservative
Ford & Trudeau are 2 of the same kind of Charlatans!
Ford is crooked
get rid of Ford.
Northern climes are not conducive to EV. It’s pretty easy to freeze to death in EVs.The EV sounds worse than the Pinto.
Yes, but the diffeerence heree is, when you are in a 15 minute city, if you go over your milles, they can just turn off your car, they can't tell you how much you can drive now, this is part of the whole thing, control
Like the Pinto, just set the EV on fire, will keep you warm long long time....😆
They knew these things wouldn't work in the early nineties. What was that an electric car that g m took away from all the people who bought them. Think it was ninety three
My parents had a pinto
@@Shelbyproductions then your lucky you didn’t explode.
Ford is no better than Trudeau. They both think Canadians have infinitely deep pockets besides trying to force their will on everyone. It is absolutely absurd to hand out 13 Billion dollars for a plant that costs less than half of that. Especially to a non Canadian company. What should be happening is that they open mines to supply these plants and also enforce closure agreements which include paying for cleanup of dangerous materials left behind when they close/leave. The only reason VW is looking at Canada, is quality labour at cheaper rates and less stringent environmental controls. They would use China or another third world country if they could get the quality product they require.
Because Ford is just a liberal puppet.
We do not subsidize companies, as taxpayers.
except we do, constantly.
Only if the Union is involved
only if the liberals are involed. lib has gone so far left they are entering new territory
Stellantis gets to experience what the rest of us Canadians have been experiencing for the last 8 years … empty promises! Fortunately for Stellantis, they can protest their anger about the terrible treatment they’re receiving without their bank accounts being frozen 😏
Joe Biden and Justin Trudeau in power is like watching Dumberer and Dumberest go into politics!!!! FJT AND FJB
biden is at least right of center, trudeau is so far left, he practically a dirty commie
His incompetence never ends
Blood batteries
Simply put, Trudeau doesn’t care about Canadians or Canada.
We know.
The same here the people in office Australia and my home country New Zealand.
We don't care about his welfare or his security team who shouldn't protect him anymore.
Virtue signal to the world by giving corporate welfare to an international company that made north of 20 BILLION, but don't support a homegrown company because their name is not known outside of Canada
Has Trudeau ever done one thing right and on time? Ever? I said 2 years ago Trudeau would throw Doug Ford under the bus like everyone else he has ever dealt with.
It doesn't matter. The power grid in Canada will never be able to handle that many electric vehicles until it gets a major overhaul. It may be fine in the winter, but, what about the extra demand for AC in the summer? BC is having a heat wave now and is worried about the grid collapsing. Just in Windsor Ontario alone, the last ice storm blew up at least 6 transformers. Power was out for hours. Canada's infrastructure is way behind.
Most cars are hybrid already so it wouldn’t be a huge transition.
Most cars are hybrid already? That's news to me I think hybrids make up around .1 percent
Yes Trudeau jail soon please please save Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks' Brian for the in-depth coverage.
THIS WILL SAVE THE TAXPAYERS THANK GOD FOR THAT
The absolute worst Prime Minister in Canada's history.
Alternative energy will happen naturally as a more efficient, superior and cheaper outcome establishes itself. There are too many governments' going all in on electric lithium batteries to the extent they have to off bribes to consumers to convince them to change.
So, in summation Private Justin shot himself in the foot again?? I am thinking there is a Beatle Bailey reference to be had here!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Trust Fund Baby what did you expect
Another example proving Trudeau is just out for the headlines rather than results.
Why should we be surprised by this. This government breaks everything it touches.
yet we keep electing them
The usual screwed up mess from Trudeau!!!
The surprise here is that afterv8 years there are still people who are surprised by this

I’d be willing to bet that Trudeau will have a nice share in VW.

Ev is madness. Full stop!
What has this government not botched ?
A good point that many people have made is if electric vehicles are the new big thing why are so many subsidies and handouts needed? Could it be that no one has any confidence that people will be willing to rush out and buy a high priced, high spec Golf Cart, if I see two E.V.s in the day I would be lucky, do I know anyone who owns one or indeed plans to get one, No. When Automobiles made their debut at the start of the twentieth century no one got a subsidy to make them and people rushed out to buy them because they made sense and replaced horses and mules, does anyone think the same thing can be said of E.V.s?
Good, F electric vehicles.
Follow the money trail. Our crimeminister at work.
We give wealthy share holders hard working tax dollars . How about shares at dollar value with dividends for the Canadian people? It should be illegal for the government to do these kind of things and corps who fleece us like VW can piss off !
Thank you Brian!
😂 Are you telling Canadians that another idea from Trudeau and his Misfit Cabinet screwed up again? 😂😂 That's all Trudeau did his entire Useless Life. Failure after Failure. From Part Time Teacher to a Pretend Leader. 😂
Sad. Just when you think some manufacturing is coming back to Canada.
But we pay carbon taxes and the Americans don’t. We were told that reducing our standard of living will give us the edge on the global stage. Now we find out this isn’t true? Why do we have to match the Americans? ESG investing should compel Stalantis to invest in Canada, we have a carbon tax. What happened to all the rhetoric we were fed, we’re we lied to by the Liberals?
Well surprise surprise more liebral lies
Someone please explain to me how these EV Battery plants are a good business case? Canada does not currently produce lithium but has hard rock spodumene deposits and brine-based lithium resources. Australia is the world's largest lithium producer, accounting for nearly half of global production in 2021.
Lithium brine recovery is a straightforward but time consuming process. Salt-rich water is pumped to the surface and into a series of evaporation ponds. Over a period of months, the water slowly evaporates and a variety of salts precipitate out, leaving a brine with an ever-increasing concentration of lithium.
These are the largest reserves of lithium on the planet, Canada isn't even in the running. 1. Chile · 2. Australia · 3. Argentina · 4. China · 5. United States.... With Australia as the top exporter...This means we'll have to import the Lithium as we currently don't produce it, and when we do, its a environmental nightmare.
So...in short, we are currently in the top 3 in reserves for a product the world needs, but Trudeau is seeking to dismantle that, then we drop in revenue. When will we have to drop out of the G7 because we are no longer the economic powerhouse? Trudeau is a epically stupid individual, who is running the country based off of Extremist rhetoric and feeding his nonsense as gospel to the public.....Clue in Canada!!
Stellantis and VW both have plenty of money and resources at their disposal, and they can afford to build the battery plant on their own. If they won't, then that means there isn't a business case for it. That means none of these companies should get a dime of taxpayer money to do this. From any country or any level of government. Problem solved.
Nothing new from Trudeau and his government.
Trudeau also said he had the Canadian peoples backs...
What a joke. He only cares about his back.
vw gave trudeau more kick back than stellantis
If Stellantis were located in Quebec and Lavalin were the contractors , oh how different it would be . C A McLean
If small businesses keep this country going, why are small businesses always having to subsistize the mega corporations of the world??
Both of these incompetent "leaders" need to be sent packing,
Well in other news,a new inflation report was released for April. Surprise, surprise inflation is heading back up.TSX Stock market took a nosedive today. An immediate result. The long-term the Bank of Canada will maintain the current high interest rates. Even worse possibly start raising them even higher!!
Ironically all the above is in the same month the carbon tax and other taxes were increased again.
My theory is the carbon tax will give us permanent high inflation! A very high cost of living forever.
No matter what anyone says about any of this there is 1 fact no one talks about…the Canadian electrical grid is not prepared for millions of people plugging in vehicles @ 5-6pm.
Someone did mention it in the comments!
He dug the hole, let’s back fill before he gets out. J.T.F.O.
Does anyone think the federal government is running out of money and Canada is in real ignorance trouble. Carbon tax could be to help pay down our interest on our debt could we be the next Greece.
Yup the next Greece while those authorities abusing powers grease themselves in private secret shares…
Notice Omars shoes, did he wake up with a hangover? Tubby Ford still hiding behind a mask. Three missing lapel badges and a Duffus in red. Great energy:)
LOL. Man, Brian, just tell me when Trudeau is out.
Brian, it ain’t going to get any better with the incompetence of the entire Lib party. No credibility, honesty or fiscal or financial sense.
EV sales are very low and the companies want out.
Do not believe in tax breaks and donate funds to large companies.
We don't expect anything else from Truedope. I don't know how he can walk around and still hold his head up??
You are so RIGHT
There is no future with electric vehicles !
HOW IS THIS GOING TO HELP THE COST OF LIVING IN CANADA?
JUST GIVE 3,000 PEOPLE 2 MILLION EACH AND LETS USE THE OTHER BILLIONS TO PAY OFF SOME DEBT.
12 BILLION FOR 3,000 JOBS IS WHAT ? ALMOST 4 MILLION A PERSON ?
??????
I want that job!
If a project is really good, if it has positive economic returns, then it won't need a tax break or subsidies. The subsidies handed to Volkswagen are enormous and it is unfair to other companies who seek to compete in the same space . The next shoe to drop is that they demand the same treatment. This is 100% predictable.
How isn't the Liberal Party having a Leadership Review?? Shows How educated they really are....
Glad to hear that the Prime Mistake and his team of hypocrites and fools have failed again. Well done
E.V.s are a lost cause anyways. Our power grid will never support everyone driving E.V.s. Batteries are extremely polluting both the miningmof materials and the fact they only last 5 to 8 years are very expensive to replace .
Okay but let's remember Canadian taxpayers helped bail out Chrysler/Dodge. Just thought instead of the Stellantis deal give Toyota a deal to build another plant in Ontario. Toyota makes good vehicles that people want to buy. No one wants a Fiat or Alpha Romeo.
Holy crap - we are 1/10 size of USA - we should not be giving out ANY money to either of them
When is Doug going to learn the JT is NOT his friend? Time to break up that bromance!
Trudeau should read Art of the Deal.
hopefully, those 2500 jobs will wake up and see the real Mr. Castro J.
Trudeau loves to cozy up to Doug Ford when there’s a flashy announcement to make and a good photo op. But Ford very quickly becomes a convenient target for Trudeau when things start to go south even when it’s the feds that are at fault. Ford should tell Trudeau to stick it!
The same 13 billion would build 13 non polluting coal plants that would produce virtually clean cheap energy for everyone but why would the Government do something that saves tax dollars and is good for Canadians as a whole?
