We are a non-unionized factory in the GTA. I've been with the company for 10 years as a full time hourly employee (8:00am-4:00pm Monday to friday). The new owners have decided to put the entire plant on a 12 hour rotating continental shift. My question is if this can be grounds for constructive dismissal as this causes a situation that makes it almost impossible to maintain my position due to other commitments and disruptions. Thank you

If you have never worked this type of shift, and unless you have an employment contract which explicitly allows your employer to change your shifts, this is absolutely a basis for a constructive dismissal claim.
