The problem I have is that Bombardier tried to "rectify" shoddy work with yet more shoddy work (riveting ill-fitting panels). That's not only inexcusably poor quality control, it's an inexcusable attempt to hide the problem once discovered. Bombardier makes airplanes, for chrissake -- they should be damned good at quality control, and shouldn't be trying to sweep manufacturing problems under the rug.
Did you miss the part about the fact that the cars were NOT accepted in that condition?
The TTC has a person at the factory to oversee the final assembly of each streetcar, and Bombardier doesn't even get to think about shipping any of them until he signs off on it first. All of the problems that continue to be bandied about in the media happened months ago, and have long-since been rectified.
