Corporate subsidies and bailouts are pretty common throughout the world, and I don't neccesarily disagree with them in principle, but there comes a time when you need to say enough is enough. I think Bombardier just got there.

Pretty sure way to much $$$ have been put into Bombardier to keep them afloat ! Bailing out know would be total lose! Guess its no different than all the money that was spent on the gun law and then was abolished !

The airplane business in the world is all about subsidies. Everyone that builds planes get subsidized by there country. Its a super competitive industry to be in and is more about keeping thousands of people in work than anything else from what I hear.

the problem with this particular one is that they are huge supporters of the Liberal party. Every time the Liberals get elected, Bombardier gets another bailout.

I just remembered why we threw these bums out 9 years ago.

The libs will look after the east , while making the west pay for it...always have always will ! Research into how many ministers are from Toronto & Quebec ! Once again we have a regional government . So yes eastern companies will always get a "helping hand"....,

And how does Trudeau help out our BC aerospace? Cancels the F-35. If this had ties to Ontario or Quebe I wonder if he would be so quick to cancel the contracts. Oh well Obama has been cancelling a few things on us too, thank you Trudeau.
