Blackberry is a fantastic story
but share price sucks as everyone just thinks of the phones, the reality is they are a software company and best product is for the cars.    Our investment community does not do well with many products that are Canadian based.    Take Bombardier aerospace out of Canada and put it in the US and it would be so well funded that politicians would be tripping over each other and giving free facilities for manufacturing.   Here there is virtually no support.   
While I would have loved to see Bombardier going it all alone to take on the doupoly, the reality is that Bombardier has to deal with Canadian non-support as well....   My hope is that the Bombardier -Airbus Joint venture remains a solid partnership for a long time.    I know that the 500 WILL BE THE airplane of the future.    I just hope that we Canadians will have a solid piece of it.    %)NowRetired
