Published by BriefDash · · Toronto
Canada announced $18.5 million in support for Prevost’s $87.5-million vehicle-platform project in Sainte-Claire, Quebec, on October 16. The planned platform is intended to accommodate multiple propulsion technologies, including zero-emission options. The federal release says the project will maintain 1,265 full-time-equivalent jobs. These are announced funding and project commitments, not evidence that development or electrification is complete.
Why it matters
The employment figure refers to positions to be maintained, not 1,265 additional jobs.
