Construction has been halted on the electric-vehicle battery plant after the automaker behind Chrysler and its South Korean battery partner said the government has failed to deliver on a contribution agreement promised last fall. It comes after Canada offered Volkswagen between 8 and 13 billion dollars in production subsidies for batteries it will produce at a recently announced plant in St. Thomas, Ontario.
