Quebec-based Bombardier Inc, which employs 3,000 people across nine U.S. facilities, is engaged with the Canadian government following U.S. President Trump’s threat to decertify its jets and impose a 50% tariff due to certification disputes over Gulfstream jets. Trump claims Canada has unjustly delayed certification, while Bombardier asserts its compliance with FAA standards and emphasizes its investment in U.S. operations. Meanwhile, Canada’s F-35 purchase is under review, and discussions are ongoing about potentially substituting Gripen jets. Aviation experts note delays in Gulfstream certification in Canada are justifiable based on technical oversight.
