Does that mean the European's will be bailing out Bombardier from now on?

No cash changes hand. A huge win for Airbus, a huge loss for Boeing :P

It won't effect the tarrif's against the C series at all. But at least they'll probably sell more planes in Europe, because frankly from a sales point of view the C series is a bit of a dud.

Sure it would. The plane will now be built in Mobile, AL for American customers. Good luck slapping a tariff on an American made plane.

The only way to fix Bombardier is to Anglicize it's name.
it is now known as Bomb-a-deer.

Airbus has a US plant. Presumably if they build it in the US tariffs aren't an issue?

Between equalizations and the bailouts I'd wager 5% of our provincial take goes to support Bombardier

A real cash cow, in Washington, Oh mon Dieu! We will be milking the same cow as Boeing.

If they’re built in the states they’re scot free aren’t they?

I have my doubts because this ruling was based on business practices that have already happened.
The US will view this as a cynical way to get around the tariffs and probably not lift them on the C series.

Giving up that equity for no cash looks a lot like a white flag to me. Like, if you're going to get bought out, at least get bought?

I don't think it's legally possible for the US to put tariffs on items that are made in the US. I'm pretty sure free interstate commerce is part of their constitution.
