Well, isn't that nice. They take a billion in government money, then without missing a step start offshoring jobs.
They have no choice really.
Changing economics mean the Q400 must compete head-on against the much cheaper ATR72, and the reality is in most markets the ATR will win the sale 9 times out of 10.
Similarly, the half-abandoned CRJ struggles against Embraer's offerings (especially with the E2s around the corner) plus they must also compete against newcomers such as the MRJ.
It's either cut cost and offshore some jobs, or completely shut down the programs.
