Bombardier To Sell Q400 Program To Viking Air
Canadian airplane manufacturer Bombardier has announced the surprising sale of its Q Series program and De Havilland trademark to a wholly owned subsidiary of Longview Aviation capital Corp. (Viking Air) for approximately $300 million.

All this saddens me because the crj is my favorite plane and they have a proud history with the dash 8. All this selling out, I don't know if it is sound strategy. Lots of layoffs too recently. I hope they can recover.
I wonder if there was government influence at work.
