text: Interesting to watch Trudeau play the business card. 
  
  While sticking it to small business (aka "The 1%" allegedly) in the form of tax hikes and heaping opprobrium on hard working people across the land, Justin simultaneously tries to position himself as the champion of Canadian industry by supporting Bombardier vs Boeing. Bombardier, helpfully, is in Quebec. You know, that province where Energy East was just canned because it would cost Liberals votes? Bombardier also happens to be a bastion of MIDDLE CLASS employment (in Quebec), the guys JT and BM claim to care/know so much about. Objectively, I can see the merits of confronting Boeing. I can also see the cynical smoke screen that our mascot, erm I mean PM, emits in his efforts to play up this dispute in the face of his government's assault on small business. Message: the right business is one that relies on the feds/provs and can threaten unwelcome lay-offs around election time. Self-reliant small businesses? You're on your own.
