Toyota has a huge       plant (maybe their NA HQ?) just down the road from here. Honda has several       in the region, too. There are several large auto parts plants in the area       surrounding the Toyota plant. Boycotting US-built Toyota vehicles would hurt       this area much more than boycotting Bourbon.              > Back in Detroit's heyday, it must have been convenient being right       > across the border - I remember reading about Canadian-branded GM cars       > in the 1980s.
