Shawville Ford meets with local MP

Shawville Ford meets with local MP

On Nov. 27, Shawville Ford owners Robert, Heather and Curtis MacKechnie were invited to Parliament Hill by Pontiac MP Will Amos to discuss American-imposed tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum. They were joined by the CEO of Ford Motor Company of Canada, Mark Buzzell. Heather said that the tariffs have cost Ford $1 billion since they were implemented in June. She added that this is the equivalent of $500 dollars per truck which Ford has not passed on to the customers.
