Cost being a factor along with inventory.

Windsor Minivan Plant

Down for Christmas and the entire month of January

Oshawa GM Plant

The plans are still in flux and the union doesn't know how long the layoffs will be.

St. Thomas Plant
Down this week
Then back up for two weeks and down again for another two.

Ford Oakville Plant
Down for 10 weeks out of 12.

Default Hey. Finally set up my rear speakers, calibrated them, then watched The Dark Knight on BR

Unbelievable the sound. And why couldnt they keep the film format constant? I know one is Imax, but why wouldnt they film the other parts to the same format?
