Bombardier continues to talk to Canadian officials about another possible $1 billion investment as it transitions from development to entry-into-service of its new CSeries program. The program received a boost from the recent $1 billion commitment from the Government of Quebec, which strengthened the company’s near-term liquidity position. The company since has asked government officials in Ottawa to consider its request for another investment with some urgency, the Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail reported.
