The issue is that a minority shareholder has majority control through a dual class share structure.  That would fine if the Bombardier Beaudoin family used part of their own 4.5 billion to fund the company but they feel they are entitled to maintaining control even when they beg the taxpayer to fund them.

Now imagine if the government compelled them to relinquish that dual class stucture the first time bombardier wanted taxpayer money.  Pierre Beaudoin would have been fired long before he created this mess, the free market would be happy to fund Bombardier because there would be higher accountability, and because of no government involvement there would be no trade dispute.

Bombardier shareholders, their employees and the Canadian taxpayer would be all better off. Everyone except the Bombardier Beaudoin family.  This all because of this whole Trudeau, Chretien, and Laurentian back scratching and corruption at our expense.
