Even more ironic, the contract was for Montreal, where Bombardier was headquartered.
17:53 - Boxcar WillyYes it was Bombardier at the time, now Alstom. I worked there and was laid off just before Christmas in 2019.
17:50 - corruptIs it Bombardier? They also recently lost a pretty big contract in Germany iirc.
17:49 - Boxcar WillyWe should have had Canadian content laws in place for contracts like this, it only benefits everyone in Canada.
17:48 - Boxcar WillyThis situation is absurd to me. This company builds trains in Canada, and lost a contract for a Canadian city to China. It's so frustrating.
17:31 - corruptI can't complain right now, as I'm on a union contract and the union negotiates periodic raises but looking at society overall, capitalism fucks people left and right.
17:30 - corruptWe're fully at eye-level there. Companies have largely not owned up to their responsibility to pay people according to their cost of living.
