Metrolinx is trying to cancel because Bombardier is already two years late with delivery with no firm date in sight.
Metrolinx says they are liable to pay up to $500K in penalty to construction firm if track certification is delayed due to lack of train sets, prolonging the construction period.
How do you feel about this?

*$500K a day

Makes me feel glad we went with Alstom instead...

Go with Bombadier, your agency's end is near.
What they should be doing is negotiating with another company now so that when they're freed from this contract they can award a new one immediately to make sure they get them on time. That's what my agency did when it took them an extra two years and four tries to make a structurally sound prototype on a design they've made before and has been used by the agency for almost 20 years.

Bribes and threats of factory closures.
In Canada, factory closure threat, lobby through union, bribes, and national security threat (where will you get custom military equipment if we close down?).
The problem is that the Beaudoin family that controls Bombardier is incompetent as fuck and don't know how to run a fucking engineering company. The only things they know how to do is distributing bribes and extracting subsidies.
