Buick Canada works as a subsidiary of General Motors (GM) Canada. The origins of GM Canada goes back to the Oshawa Carriage Works. It was started by a farmer Robert McLaughlin in 1877. The carriage plant was a great success. Robert’s sons began producing cars with Buick engines in 1908 under the McLaughlin Motor Car Company. In 1916, the McLaughlin Motor Car Company started building Chevrolets. In 1918, GM decided to buy the McLaughlin business, and General Motors of Canada was established. Today GM of Canada can produce more than a million units in Canada. Chevrolet cars are one of its biggest sellers.
