Summary · why it matters

President Trump said on the 7th that he would not allow Canada's Bombardier to sell its private jets in the US unless the company produces them in the country. In a post on his social media platform Truth Social, he wrote, "We will no longer allow Bombardier to sell in the US! The quality of their products is not good enough!" He added, "If they want access to our market, they must manufacture here and stop treating America like a piggy bank." The remarks came as Canada was set to impose retaliatory tariffs on US goods on the 8th in response to US tariffs. The White House declined to comment on any measures to block sales of Bombardier aircraft that have received FAA type certification. Aerospace analyst Richard Aboulafia noted that most of the engines for Bombardier jets are made by US firms Honeywell Aerospace and GE Aerospace, making customer cancellations or sales bans unlikely. Bombardier employs 3,500 people in the US and has 2,800 suppliers, and produces wings for its flagship Global 8000 jet in Texas.
