    I basically agree, it’s really how you define the terms. We don’t have Canadian manufacturers etc. But it’s not straight up American, we also have Honda and Toyota.

    And a lot of the world fights for any position on that resource chain as the almost 400K jobs in the sector are generally high paying, often low education requirements, hard to replace jobs with specialized, not always particularly transferrable skills. One of the last of the “good” manufacturing jobs and replacing it will be incredibly difficult.
