[edit]

While Ducharme's exit story is mostly true, it should be verified with sources. FOr example was it Miller or Moscoe that fired him? Also, there needs to be a source for the David Gunn accusation. --Atrian 15:10, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Costs

[edit]

Ducharme's claim is still a point of considerable dispute; we shouldn't be presenting it as fact. CJCurrie 01:47, 2 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

So is Bombardier's claim that it would generate $$$ in tax savings. So just not to muddy the waters, you should not just dispute one side's arguement while ignoring another. GoldDragon 20:25, 24 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The details are now available in the linked article. CJCurrie 23:46, 24 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, this is a Bombardier press release. It couldn't get more POV than that. GoldDragon 21:51, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ducharme in Edmonton

[edit]

The difference in Toronto is that Ducharme did recommend to the board to have an open bid, but it was turned down. However, in Edmonton, the contract was already signed before he got there. The next time another contract comes back, we will see how Ducharme reacts. The existing wording is not that POV-ish but it does have the effect of making him look like a hypocrite.

Lastly, the main reason why Ducharme left was interference, as there were negotiations between Moscoe and the transit union behind his back, and he citing this to the media. We don't know whether Ducharme would have left because of just the Bombardier contract. GoldDragon 03:25, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
