President Trump has issued an ultimatum to Canadian aerospace manufacturer Bombardier, declaring the company cannot sell aircraft in the United States unless it establishes manufacturing operations domestically. The threat, announced via Truth Social, represents an extension of his protectionist trade policies targeting a significant Canadian export sector.

The ultimatum arrives amid escalating economic friction between the two nations, with Canada preparing to impose retaliatory tariffs on approximately $20 billion of American goods. The tit-for-tat measures underscore deepening trade tensions between Washington and Ottawa, with both countries using targeted economic pressure to signal resolve in their ongoing commercial dispute.

  • Trump bars Bombardier from US market access unless the Canadian manufacturer relocates aircraft production to America
  • Announcement coincides with Canada's planned $20bn tariff retaliation on US goods
  • Reflects widening trade confrontation between US and Canada over tariffs and manufacturing
