Oh and backed by billions of taxpayer dollars in the last few years, and I don't care which division. Management ineptitude at it's best.
True can easily be misleading.
In this case, I don’t know the details and obviously don’t trust Bombardier, but say the choice is either:
1) ship the vehicles December 1 with one week of work still to do; or
2) ship the vehicles January 1 complete.
This could happen if the rails are busy in December and therefore can’t be shipped between December 6 and 31.
Then option (1) gets the completed vehicles on TTC property before the end of the year while option (2) does not.
But the headline makes it sound like Bombardier just shipped whatever they had at the time in order to slide in under the wire.
This is not to excuse Bombardier’s missing of other deadlines, but what Canard is saying about this specific incident could be perfectly reasonable (and he’s more likely than most to know).
Media should do more to embarrass this morally bankrupt company.
