I mean, Toyota also owns enough land at it's Woodstock plant to build a battery plant on site here as well, why build out in New Hamburg in that case.

Was there an actual "story" or us it rumour based on Toyota's looking for incentives plus the recent news of the Region of Waterloo land assembly?
Why there - access to a bigger labour pool? A number of parts suppliers already nearby?
