S&J should do the same thing to the drunk guy with the keyboard. Those were real people with families and gun owners too.

I agree Matt K.

Hopefully CC can turn this around. They should look to HK for the path to do so. I'm going to order a CC upper to help things out.

Perhaps a bailout would help? I mean, how many time must we bail out a failing railroad/airplane company? Maybe a company that we actually should keep around this time?

I hope it's exaggerated and that things are okay at CC, but I can't think of a bailout we've done yet that benefited Canadians.

Not sure how well Colt Mexico rifles will go over...
 
Yayyy products made by the lowest bidder, and disgruntled. Sounds like a great combo��. Who has an o' Canada emoticon?

I'm curious what you and the others that have said as much think should be done, before you answer consider who always lands on their feet in a situation like this...the people who ran the place. Is it more screw the worker on the CNC, or the person running the fork in Shipping/Receiving? Your profile says your in Montreal, so don't need to tell you what's happened to manufacturing jobs in Ontario and Quebec.

Someone (rightly) pointed out earlier that if federal money is being given out, it should be a requirement that management of the business be restructured.

No argument there! Thing is by whom? I'd suggest take over ownership (because we can due to the nature of the company) if it got to the point that it was going down, and hand the daily operation over to the people who actually run the place on a daily basis. Most important, not have it a publically traded company, all the smoke and mirrors that drag operations like this down appear to be decisions made to manipulate share price, not improve the bottom line.

Make sense to me. If you're getting federal money you shouldn't be publicly traded. The GM bailout was one of the most appalling things I've ever witnessed and it's still going on!
