Thousands of auto workers in Canada have been temporarily laid off because of the GM strike, according to the Canadian trade union Unifor.
Dias said the Canadian union members support the UAW's strike against GM, even though it's costing them work.
Analysts at Citigroup earlier in the week said suppliers with the biggest exposure include American Axle, Magna, Lear and Aptiv. Representatives with those companies did not immediately respond to requests for comment from CNBC. "We will continue to monitor the situation and work to minimize the impact to our employees," wrote UAW Local 699 President Tom Hurst. "Our goal is to return to full production as quickly as possible. We will also continue to update employees if the situation changes or as we learn more."Continental, which supplies tires and other products to several GM plants, said it hasn't been impacted yet.
