Today, Ford has operations in more than 125 countries and territories around the world, but back in 1904, the new company had yet to set foot outside of the U.S. Just across the Detroit River in Canada, Gordon McGregor was taking note of the up-and-coming automotive companies and saw a way to bring the industry to Canada and revitalize his company, the Walkerville Wagon Works, at the same time. It developed into a momentous partnership that shaped the future of Ford. Would you like to be part of history?

It began on Aug. 17, 1904. Although barely one year old, Ford took its first step outside of the U.S. into Canada when Henry Ford and Gordon McGregor inked a deal that created the Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited. Production began in Walkerville, now Windsor, Ontario and 17 employees built 117 cars, including Ford Model C and Model B, in the first year. As the country’s longest-established automaker, Ford of Canada is proud to have employed thousands of Canadians over the years and produced everything from cars and trucks to vans and SUVs, not to mention Ford V8 engines. “Although 120 years in Canada is an incredible milestone, what makes me proud is the innovation and determination it took to get here,” said Bev Goodman, president and CEO, Ford of Canada. “That hard work has made the Ford F-Series the best-selling pickup in Canada for 58 consecutive years and has made Ford the best-selling automotive brand in the country for 15 years running.” “The heart that has powered this organization for 120 years and will propel us into the future is our people,” said Goodman. “Our amazing Canadian team, along with our network of Dealers, have always been at the core of our success and longevity.” Every Ford rolling down a Canadian road reflects 120 years of experience, knowledge, and innovation. Looking forward, we’ll continue to be here for Canadians in the decades and centuries ahead – every step of the way. Building trust, one kilometre, one moment, one Ford, at a time. ​...Show more
