Not always true. In the battle between the two big Canadian air carriers, the one that was a former Crown Corporation (Air Canada,) won out against Canadian Airlines, which was characterised by bungling and incompetence at many levels. Now, AC had been de-Crown(ed) but its superiority had been established long prior, and since privatisation, its problems have multiplied, its profits have tumbled, and its reputation has been circling the drain.
