Finance: sold off to GE Capital in 2005 (hadn't originated a new loan after 2001)
Recreation - spun off in 2003 (that company still carries the Bombardier name)
Military: sold or shut down in 2000s
Commercial aviation: Dash 1-7 aftermarket supplies sold in 2005, type certificates in 2006, and Dash 8 in 2018, CSeries (now A220) being sold to Airbus, CRJ series sold to Mitsubishi (for aftermarket line; it stopped taking orders last summer)
Transportation: proposed to be sold to Alstom
Bombardier has the Challenger 300, Challenger 600, Global series, and Learjet 70/75. If I could bet on what's next to go---it would be the Challenger 600, as the basic design is 42 years old.
