President Donald Trump has issued a warning to Canadian aircraft manufacturer Bombardier, stating that it must relocate its manufacturing to the United States if it wishes to continue selling there. This announcement, made via a Truth Social post, comes amid a growing trade conflict between the US and Canada, with Canadian retaliatory tariffs on $20 billion worth of US goods set to take effect. Bombardier, which already operates a factory in Kansas employing 3,500 American workers, is a significant contributor to Canada’s economy and a major employer in Quebec. The company complies with the North American free trade agreement, known as CUSMA in Canada and USMCA in the US. Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette has expressed support for Bombardier, emphasizing the company’s importance to the province’s economy. The trade tensions follow the collapse of recent negotiations between the two countries, with both sides blaming each other for the impasse.
