Auto parts maker Linamar Corp., plans to create 1,200 new jobs at its operations in Guelph, Ont., with a major investment backstopped by financial assistance from the federal government.
Transport Minister Lisa Raitt and Canada's second-largest auto parts maker are set to unveil an investment of more than $500-million on Monday.
In addition to creating new jobs in Guelph, the investment is also expected to secure more than 1,500 existing jobs at Linamar, which has grown from a company founded in 1966 by entrepreneur Frank Hasenfratz into a global powerhouse in the auto parts sector – one of just a handful of Canadian companies that can make that claim.
The announcement of 1,200 new jobs is a shot in the arm for the auto parts sector, which is capitalizing on robust vehicle production amid booming auto sales in the U.S. market and record deliveries by auto makers in Canada.

Now I just need to figure out what I would qualify for. Probably nothing.

Interesting. I have experience in the industry (did a co-op in R&D for Magna) so I wonder what similar jobs are going to become available in Guelph.

My education background isn't relevant. So unless they're hiring security, I don't think they have anything I would qualify for.
I'd volunteer as a research engineer though.
