Canadian Forest Industries: Unleashing Ford's new F-150
F-Series pick-ups have been the best-selling trucks in Canada for 37 years, as Ford Canada will tell anyone who'll listen. So why mess with success? It's an obvious question, as F-150 brand manager Jack Turner admits. It has less to do with staying ahead of the competition, he says, than blowing them away.

DBRS is confirming all ratings of the Ford group of companies. The companies are largely on track with the revitalization plan to restore future profitability. Ford Motor Credit Companys earnings continue to be very high, and the balance sheet and liquidity positions of both the auto and finance companies remain excellent. Thus, the BBB (high) and R-1 (low) ratings adequately reflect the risk associated with the Ford companies. Three issues of concern that could influence the future ratings are: (1) The rise of health care costs near 9%, with the health deficiency remaining largely underfunded. (2) The high price of gasoline which, if it continues, will eventually affect sales and margins of SUVs and pickups, where Ford earns most of its operating profits. The R-1 (low) with a Stable trend reflects the very strong liquidity position and balance sheet of both Ford Motor Company and Ford Motor Credit Company, and the expectation that this position will not change.

As one of the FCEMs major supporters, Ford donated $3 million towards the project in December 2000, which was the largest college endowment in Ford Canadas history. The October 2003 grand opening of the FCEM was scheduled to coincide with the 100th year anniversary celebration of Ford Motor Company, providing Ford the perfect platform for awarding 100 scholarships by Ford Motor Co. This, however, is not the first time Ford Canada has made a commitment to education and training. In March of 1937, the Ford Trade School was opened in Windsor to recruit and train workers for Ford operations. Developing their technical skills was only part of the program. Students were also taught the Ford philosophy, which focused on discipline, integrity, teamwork and other important life skills. In 1948, the Ford Trade School was the first Canadian institution to receive official recognition from the America Society of Tool Engineers, which allowed students to apply their education towards a university degree.

The Canadian union accepted the elimination of about 3,100 jobs, or about 8 percent of the 41,000 workers it represents at the companies. GM, Ford and DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler agreed to invest in some Canadian factories and forestall closing others. GM and Ford may seek to eliminate a total of at least 37,000 jobs in the negotiations with the UAW, he said. Job losses for the union's members may reach 60,000 under the 2007 agreements, including the three automakers and Delphi Corp. Union members will vote on the agreement this weekend, CAW spokesman Jim Pare said. The Ford contract was ratified by 95 percent of its CAW members and the Chrysler agreement was approved by 86 percent of that automaker's CAW workers.
Ford Motor Co. of Canada, Ltd. vMNR (CA)
Ford Canada was importing cars and light trucks from its American parent to Ford dealerships in Canada. A term of the sale agreement between Ford Canada and each of the dealers was that the vehicles would be delivered to the dealers with preparation and conditioning work outstanding. This work was to be performed by each dealer after delivery but prior to resale. Ford Canada paid sales tax based on duty paid value of these imported vehicles. Due to the exchange rate at that time, tax on the sale price would have been less than if calculated based on duty paid value. Ford Canada applied to the Department of Revenue to be included in the expanded definition of "manufacturer or producer" in the amended paragraph 2(1)(f ) of the Excise Tax Act and pay tax on the sale price in Canada of imported vehicles rather than on the duty paid value. The Trial Judge held in favour of Ford Canada and declared that it was the manufacturer of all those passenger vehicles. He found that some inspections, adjustments, alterations and tests performed in the preparation and conditioning process clearly amounted to a meaningful step in the preparation of the vehicles for sale. He decided that the work was done on behalf of Ford Canada and that the dealerships were not retail stores, so that Ford Canada was not subject to the exclusion in the amended definition on this basis. He also found that there was no evidence to suggest that the application was not fairly considered. Finally, he found that the cost of transporting the imported vehicles to the dealerships was a cost incurred in delivery of the goods, and not a cost of manufacturing the goods. The Minister appealed that part of the decision finding that the respondent was a manufacturer or producer.
