Local NDP MPs are urging the Federal Government to come up with a National Auto Strategy.
Brian Masse (Windsor-West), Cheryl Hardcastle (Windsor Tecumseh) and Tracey Ramsey (Essex) spoke together Monday afternoon on the riverfront at Ouellette Ave. with the Detroit Skyline and Ambassador Bridge as a backdrop.
Ramsey — who is the Trade Critic — is urging the Liberal government to defend Canada's auto sector.
She says threatened tariffs from the Trump Administration on the auto industry would have a 'devastating impact' on our region.
"We need to have a plan, we need to know exactly how it will impact the jobs in our region, the sector and we need to bring that message to the government that ultimately the government needs to take action."
