Trudeau taking heat over Bombardier

The Trudeau Liberals are under fire for providing hundreds of millions in loans to Bombardier.

The board of directors voted to give its top executives 50% raises.  There was a massive public backlash and the company backed off, deferring the raises and tying them to performance objectives.

Prime Minister Trudeau told the Commons the money provided to Bombardier will help create good-paying jobs in Canada’s aerospace sector.
