Trump said he'll stop Canada's Bombardier from being sold in the US

Trump said the Canadian manufacturer needs to build jets in the US to win business from US customers.

In a recent statement, President Donald Trump threatened to ban the sale of Bombardier aircraft in the United States. The Canadian manufacturer, known for its business and private luxury jets, needs to build its planes in the US to win business from US customers, Trump said in a Truth Social post. Bombardier, based in Montreal, currently has federal agencies like the US Air Force and the Federal Aviation Administration among its customers.

The company's statement on its website refuted Trump's claim, emphasizing its strong contribution to the American aerospace industry and its direct employment presence in over 20 states with sites in various US locations. The company also uses American-made aircraft components in its manufacturing process. Despite Trump's post, there is no current information on whether any federal agencies have canceled orders with Bombardier.
