Trump threatens Americans with 50% tariff on Canadian aircraft*
Who gives a fuck. Go crawl in a grave you old pedophile self serving fuck. Nobody likes you and they never will. All your "good" is just smoke and mirrors you twat.
Get fucked. Nobody is listening.
Decertification of an aircraft by a national regulator like the FAA would make it unable to legally fly in that particular country.
Thousands of Quebec-based Bombardier’s business jets operate in the U.S., and its recently-divested CRJ passenger jets are operated by several regional American airlines.
So halt air travel and tourism in the US by both Canadians and Americans and force American airliners to buy brand new aircraft? Am I reading that correctly?
Yes, and they have to buy his favourite planes from his favourite friends.
It’s crony capitalism.
I've ceased trying to apply logic to their choices.
Setting aside the main discussion for a moment (I think it’s been covered thoroughly by now), just a friendly reminder to diversify news sources and read past the title.
I think, we’re in a Canadian space, outside of the de-facto mainstream social media platform and further delegated to a Canada-centric platform. I really do think that we’re all going to benefit if we take this explosion in popularity here to make sure we better ourselves online at the same time. I have been guilty of it, so many of us have.
It’s easy to get caught in the negative news cycle, and even knee-jerk reactions from the headlines. But Trump is not our president and he never will be. Our helm is navigating the rough waters. Take solace in the captain’s fortitude and give him time to weather the storm. Unless the ship starts to sink, we’re all better doing what we can to make this ride as bearable as possible.
I am not saying outrage is invalid. Every Canadian has the right to feel strongly about what’s going on. But, let’s not play the game too much when we know the game is rigged. The house always wins, unless we realize that we don’t have to play against the house.
Much love from Canada.
The gulfstream 700 and 800 only have conditional certification in the US. Why conditional? Because they have fuel systems that are vulnerable to failure in cold weather. Our choice to not certify them isn't arbitrary.
Trump is like that kid always threatening to jump off a bridge and doesn't. Lol.
Jesus, I wish the Supreme Court would issue a ruling striking this nonsense down. He's destroying commerce and credibility, wreaking havoc that will take decades to correct if it doesn't lead to a complete collapse of the U.S. as a unified nation.
At this point, they can all fuck a duck. Rule whatever, the world's moving on from the United States, they just can't be trusted.
Boeing probably still salty about the A220
