Ontario Investing $7.3 Million in Windsor to Protect Tariff-Impacted Workers

March 11, 2026

This marks the latest deployment of the Ontario Together Trade Fund, with the eight recipient companies’ projects amounting to nearly $44 million in near-term investments that will create over 65 new, good paying jobs and protect 692 more across the Windsor region.

Since its launch, OTTF has supported nearly $209 million in total project investments, while protecting and creating more than 2,770 jobs across Ontario.

In response to overwhelming demand for the program, the government announced an additional $100 million investment into the program in October 2025, bringing the total funding to $150 million over three years.

Open to Ontario-based businesses investing a minimum of $200,000, eligible projects include modification of existing products to enter new sectors, procurement of advanced equipment and facility modifications to enhance domestic manufacturing and sales expansion.

As Ontario continues to navigate the impact of U.S. tariffs and global economic uncertainty, the government remains focused on delivering critical funding, cutting red tape, unleashing the economy and supporting workers.
