Except when Boeing went to United Airlines with a bid for the 737, Bombardier submitted what they classed as a ridiculously low bid on the C series jet which I would think made Boeing think that Bombardier was trying to not only poison the bid, but they wanted to compete directly with the 737 class. In effect Bombardier entered the 737 class arena and then lowballed the bid.
