Where, much of the high value IP and components are manufactured for both Airbus and Bombardier business Jets. Nice try, do some research and critical thinking next time.
You might research “outsourcing”; it doesn’t mean what you think it does.
Other then the first sentence and a half this was a good post. You are correct that Trump was doing Boeing executive's bidding. It is a perfect example of why the U.S. needs government leaders with integrity and not the Trump/ George W hog wash.
The C series program had already been delayed quite a while with cost over runs and when it was on life support the Trump administration stepped in and tried to kill it because of Boeing. Instead of killing the production of the plane, Boeing via its shady executives managed to drive the project into the hands of its closest competitor.
I'm Canadian btw. To me, this is a perfect example of when a population gets swindled and elects a leader who "thinks small," instead of "thinking big," and seeing the big picture. It is being able to see 5 steps down the road and not being an impulsive idiot who is swayed daily about important policy decisions.
