Canada should just follow the US and Brazilian governments' methods if we are serious about growing our aerospace industry.  Brazil was buying Embraer planes for its domestic and military use.  Same with the US.  It took awhile for Brazil but Embraer is now of sufficient size to play in the market.

Giving loans and grants to Bombardier just invites more challenges from its competitors.  Either support our aerospace industry with purchase contracts or let them wither away.  There's nothing better than purchasing from a company to show the confidence you have in their products.
