In the summer of 1904,
In the summer of 1904, Gordon McGregor, president of the Walkerville Wagon Works, of Walkerville, Ontario, approached an up-and-coming American auto manufacturer named Henry Ford to propose opening a Canadian auto plant. The deal they made launched Canada’s largest and oldest car-building business. Join the CAM’s Exhibit & Project Coordinator Dumaresq to see what car-building looked like at Ford Canada in 1925.
The postcard view of the plant is from the collection of the Southwestern Ontario Digital Archive.
