The top Canadian official probing a request by planemaker Bombardier Inc (BBDb.TO) for aid to support its new CSeries passenger jet on Monday indicated for the first time that Ottawa actively wanted to help the company, highlighting the number of jobs it provides. Innovation Minister Navdeep Bains until now has said merely that the Liberal government would closely examine Bombardier's request for $1 billion in aid and outlined some of the concessions he wants in return.

Beneficial in keeping some jobs in North America? A lot of the components are out sourced including fuselage components made in China. Rid out sourcing & then think about it? As well the Canadian gov't provided GM financial support with came with ownership in shares. Give a billion one would expect redeemable shares of at least 500 million in the company or no deal. That is what I call investing in Canada's future. I believe strongly in the jet success however handouts should come with stipulations
I think they should destroy all the airplanes already built, burn the plans and fire all the staff.
Maybe keep the nose section of one of them for the museum.

Your’e a fan of F-16, well Bombardier is also a bombardier. :)

I suspect it's a reference to the Avro Arrow program that was killed in exactly this fashion by the Diefenbaker government. Probably Ray is not serious about this.
Thanks for that. As they say all politics are local. Being below 49N, I missed that, but we have our own down here.
