Trump Threatens to Ban Bombardier Aircraft Sales in U.S. Unless Company Manufactures There

President Donald Trump escalated the U.S.-Canada trade war, part of a weeks-long pattern of trade threats against Canada, by threatening on Truth Social to ban Canadian aircraft manufacturer Bombardier from selling its products in the United States unless it builds its planes in America. Trump wrote, 'NO MORE SELLING BOMBARDIER IN THE UNITED STATES!' and claimed the company's products were 'not good enough.' He accused Canada of blocking American banks and companies, calling the situation 'completely unjust and unfair.' The threat came hours before Canada's retaliatory tariffs on $27.6 billion in U.S. goods were set to take effect, and despite Bombardier already employing over 3,000 people across nine U.S. facilities and supporting 2,800 American suppliers. Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette responded that Quebec would not respond to provocation with provocation and would defend its companies.
