Trump says Canadian aviation giant Bombardier can no longer sell aircraft in the United States

The US and Canada have been locked in a trade war for over a year, with the US imposing 50% tariffs on certain Canadian imports on August 22.

In a recent statement on his social media platform, US President Donald Trump announced that Canadian aviation company Bombardier can no longer sell its aircraft in the United States. Trump labeled the company's products as "not good enough," asserting that over half of Bombardier's revenue originates from US sources. He also criticized Canada for blocking American banks and companies within its borders, calling the situation unjust and unfair.

Trump pointed out that if Canada wants access to the US market, it must build its own aircraft industry and stop treating America as a "piggybank." He urged Americans to "BUY AMERICAN," "FLY ON AMERICAN AIRLINERS," and "ENJOY AMERICAN LIQUOR AND BEVERAGES," while encouraging them to "SAIL ON LAKE AMERICA."

The dispute between the two nations has been ongoing for more than a year, with Trump renaming Lake Ontario as "Lake America" on August 27, following claims that Canada has been "ripping off the US for decades." On Wednesday, Apple Maps officially changed the lake's name for US users to align with the Trump administration's order.

In August, the US imposed 50% tariffs on certain Canadian imports after the countries failed to reach a trade deal, with both nations accusing each other of interfering with ongoing talks. Ariella Roitman from the Jerusalem Post and Reuters contributed to this report.
