They could always reopen the asbestos mines in quebec, pretty sure they're eco friendly and won't affect climate change.

And now the squealing has begun.......cue up the indignant union leader. The Alberta Energy sector can be gutted piecemeal and the east thoroughly enjoys it. But Bombardier soaks up billions of tax payer money, gives huge bonuses to management, and announces layoffs, and what will happen? More government money of course. What a racket.
