    Caterpillar has caused an uproar in Canada with a controversial plant closing. But the company attracted so many people to an Indiana jobs fair that the event had to be shut down earlier than planned.

    On Friday, Caterpillar's Progress Rail Services said it was closing the 62-year-old Electro-Motive Canada plant in London, Ontario, about two hours west of Toronto.
    .......

    In explaining the shutdown, Billy Ainsworth, the CEO of Progress Rail, said in a letter to employees that all the company's facilities "must achieve competitive costs, quality and operating flexibility to compete and win in the global marketplace, and expectations at the London plant were no different."

    It's the second big closing in that part of Canada in a year's time. Navistar shut its truck plant in nearby Chatham, Ontario in 2010, eliminating 1,100 jobs.

    But at the moment, Caterpillar is the toast of Muncie, in east central Indiana.

    Over the weekend, Caterpillar held a jobs fair that attracted about 3,000 applicants for jobs paying between $12.50 and $18 an hour, according to the Muncie Free Press.

    "us being willing to face arrest" (none / 0) (#2)

    Can you get over these Socialist bastards?  Publicly inciting civil disorder and chaos.  And they're never once stated by the MSM as being "extremists"?

    United Auto Workers President Bob King used the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the Flint Sit-Down Strike to call for "direct action" -- including nonviolent civil disobedience -- to take back America from the "right-wing Republicans" and "one-percenters" who he says have hijacked this democracy.

    King said the UAW would begin training its members and other activists this spring to take part in peaceful, but potentially illegal, protests across America to stop what he called the rollback of workers' rights and civil rights.

    "It will take direct action. It will take us being willing to face arrest. It will take us being willing to be part of marches and demonstrations," King told a crowd of some 500 union members gathered to mark the anniversary of the end of the 1937 strike against General Motors Co. that led to the UAW's first national contract. "They are attacking democracy in America. They are attacking the labor movement."
