It is quite predictable that executives are awarded bonuses for hitting critical performance targets.

At Bombardier, the most critical executive performance target is sucking money out of governments.  Consequently, when the government fails to make the slightest effort to control the bonus binge until after the government money has been dispensed, it demonstrates only incompetence or complicity or both in the actions taken by the government in stuffing money down the Bombardier pie-hole..  

The post-press exposure window dressing to attach alternative targets to the awarding of these bonuses appears likely to be a charade.  Perhaps the press will make a note to follow up on how predictable it was to achieve these alternate targets when the bonus deferral offer was hatched?
