What is this nonsense about "attacking the province " ? Obviously Couillard has taken a page from Trudeau's book, as he referred to Boeing's actions as attacking us. Bombardier is a private company who receives both federal and provincial money, supposedly to help them make planes etc. One would not be remiss in suggesting that Bombardier bills itself as a maker of planes and railway cars, but is actually in the business of getting government subsidies to create jobs. Quebec is one of those provinces who had a great deal to say against the oil sands, with no regard for the jobs in Alberta. But now that their pet project , Bombardier is under attack, they feel outraged and the PM is happy to join in. The oil sands turns a profit, while Bombardier after 40 some years continues to bleed tax payer dollars and still politicians run to their defence. If anyone is being arrogant, it would be Couillard and Trudeau , in their continued support of a losing proposition for the sake of votes.
