They are doing just fine. A little behind on our project, yes - but Kingston has handed a poorly-managed project from another plant and have turned it around incredibly rapidly. Historically, Kingston has delivered on every single project in their entire history successfully.
May I remind you that New York city just shut bombardier out. Add Toronto et al. You can laugh at me if you want but if this compnay docent get serious about how is manages itself, it's days are numbered . I truly hope I am wrong because I want a Canadian company to suceed. But right now. The reality is they are incompetent. Put your bias a side and look at their unproven results.

How many people do you think are listening in to the radio feed?

The pay is shown on a separate T-4a for income. Tax which the officer must submitt for taxes. The department will collect a separate amount of money for administration fees as well as a separate fee if a cruiser is utilized.
Again, you've missed my point - I'm not disputing this and fully understand that they are being paid by GrandLinq.
What I'm questioning is why they over, and over, and over say "Paid Duty Police Officer" on the radio - a (for all intents and purposes) closed, private radio channel. It just seems so strange to me.
Anyway, let's move on...
