An armored-vehicle maker buying an assembly plant raises an obvious question: what else might roll off its production lines? Roshel founder and CEO Roman Shimonov gives Andrew Bell a partial answer in BNN Bloomberg's most-watched new upload of the week.
Shimonov says Roshel has received a letter of intent from a major European automaker to produce civilian vehicles at the Brampton site. He does not name the company. He also says Stellantis will lease back a quarter of the plant, presenting the acquisition as a way to restore activity rather than leave the facility idle. "This plant is not operating, and that's what I'm about to fix," he tells Bell.
BNN Bloomberg gives the sale more than a CEO's perspective. Another interview brings in Vito Beato, president of Unifor Local 1285, to discuss the implications for workers. A separate clip carries Prime Minister Mark Carney's accusation that Stellantis violated its obligations under federal agreements. Those three uploads are also the channel's busiest videos right now, with Shimonov's interview approaching 10,000 views in its opening hours.
The plant coverage sits within a 21-upload week that also made room for Ian Shaffer's bullish view of Nvidia and Market Call appearances by Dan Rohinton and Christine Poole. Across the channel, weekly views reached roughly 892,000 and subscribers grew modestly, though today's viewing pace is well below its usual level.
Among nearby business channels, Prof G Markets and Kyla Scanlon drew larger weekly audiences, while Bloomberg Live had a quieter week. For BNN Bloomberg, the immediate draw is Brampton: the buyer's manufacturing plans, the workers' position and the government's objections, each given its own space.
