Boy, about $1 billion from the Quebec government and now $375.5 million from the federal government to Bombardier,  that's a lot of money that could have gone into health-care or other services for Canadians.

I wonder how much of that tax money will go to the Bombardier owners and CEOs. 

It's interesting. The private sector keeps telling us private companies should live and die by the free market and supply and demand. But. when companies get into trouble, they run to our governments for hand outs or bailouts with our tax money. By the way, how do our governments pick and chose the private interests and private companies our governments will subsidize with our tax money?

If our government is going keep handing tax money to Bombardier to keep it running, why doesn't our government just take it over and run it as a Crown corporation?
