Way back Col Sam McLaughlin started GM of Canada right here in town.
He started out in garages and built it up to what it is today.
It was started by McLaughlin and Chevrolet and started production in 1918 and was first called a McLaughlin. Col Sam's car is here in Oshawa in a museum I believe.
The plant is in danger of closure now due to tariffs.
The house in this picture is his mansion and only a few blocks away from where I live.
It has a bowling alley inside and a lot of fantastic items.
It even has a water feature that looks like the Tajmah'll in India.
His brother George invented Canada Dry Ginger Ale and lived very close to his brother
