Alstom has admitted the issues with their trains and Montreal and are working on fixing them:

Meanwhile they haven't admitted anything in Ottawa and are blaming the tracks.
Difference is that in Montreal, they are part of the consortium that runs the REM, while in Ottawa they are just a supplier and have no skin in the game.
If Doug Ford actually wants to help (he dosen't), he should put pressure on Alstom by threatening to black list them as a supplier and sue them. Doug is all about the threats, then threaten away. Of course he won't do that until Toronto starts having issues with Alstom trains.
