 Bombardier dismisses Tellier from top post   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)

Laurent Beaudoin, Pierre’s father, has assumed the company’s CEO duties for the second time in his 41-year career with Bombardier.
During a December 13 conference call Beaudoin said the decision arose mainly as a reaction to Tellier’s stated plan to leave the company once his contract expired, and that the board felt a perceived lack of stability could undermine “shareholder value.”
