Jon Ostrower @jonostrower.com · Jan 30 The team from @theaircurrent is seeking more information on this statement from the President. A massive amount of the U.S. fleet of mainline, regional, helicopter and military aircraft are "made in Canada."

Just ignore it.
What a fucking child. I hope he holds his breath until he turns blue and dies
I know it is hard to believe, but he actually believes other countries pay the tariffs he imposes on them.
Not to defend the orange menace but what actually is going on with Gulfstreams in Canada?
He means he is going to charge the U.S. a 50% tariff on Canadian aircraft. Surely by this point someone must have explained to him what a tariff is. Maybe they used hand puppets.
The delusional twat is once again trying to circumvent safety measures designed to protect consumers and air travelers. Canada has unique environment and deicing requirements must be met by foreign and domestic manufacturers both... and proven Fuck america
sometimes it feels like he’s bidding himself up at auction
Canada is not CBS.
Is he trying to collapse the airline industry?
Wild!
Blah, blah, blah, tarrifs. 🙄
Free markets, tho amirite?
dear fucking god, this is REAL www.cnn.com/2026/01/29/b...
This is so fucking pathetic.
He likes TACOs, that's all I've got for them.
Every US carrier should be on the record right now, declaring Trump is a demented lunatic.
The president of the United States is a hostile, demented, delusional madman. It is the greatest crisis ever faced by humanity. Worse than WWII. Get your affairs in order, not that it will probably matter. Hug your kids, that matters.
What a great way to make Canadians feel warm and fuzzy about buying ANY American aircraft, never mind the remaining F-35s! At this point Canada should go with the Gripens. Anything else would be interpreted as capitulation to abusive tactics, encouraging the US to treat Canada even worse in future.
This is some mad king shit.
Our ignorant Orange Leader.
So.. Gulfstream paid trump.. to bitch..? It is what he does best..
Time for our weekly stock market manipulation
Poor ol' Don. The world is just *so* complicated to him.
He's such a fool.
Just like with the tariffs, Trump "punishes" other countries by punishing Americans.
What the HELL. The Vulgarian's team is working up a *shopping list* of excuses to invade and annex us at this point.
I'm not convinced he has thought this one through. No surprise there then
Check your boarding passes America
Take grandpa’s phone away
Bwah ha ha ha ha ha! Fuck Trump.
So Gulfstream offered him a plane, right?
How about GA prop aircraft? Diamond builds them in Ontario. And does this decertify exiting aircraft already in the US? God, I can't believe I'm asking these questions.
Wait, he’s punishing Canada by making US airlines stop using thousands of aircraft they ALREADY PAID Canada for??? How does that work? Well, I guess this answers the question “How fecking stupid do you have to be to bankrupt a casino?”
Who’s shorting Canadian aerospace?💸💸💸💸
Sean Duffy is having a bad night🤣
Canada’s leader is in China seeking trade agreement, EU just signed a huge deal with India, WE FUCKED
Bombardier already sold those airplanes, so...who gives a fuck?
I sure eish we had a President who respected our neighbors sovereignty.
And Putin laughs and laughs…
He did not write this. It is grammatically decent. There are no all caps sentences and not a shrewd of word salad
This is beyond bonkers. 😵💫
Grampa's off his meds again
Not to mention how Canadian aircraft help US communities. bsky.app/profile/oliv...
Foreign policy by social media posts
The great irony being that Canada has sold many aircraft to the US in the past and currently sells relatively few.
*national emergency* 😜
How are those airline Inaugural Fund donations working out?
At the moment these are all the CRJ, CR7 and CR9 Canadian made aircraft airborne in North America
Trump will walk it all back and claim victory soon enough and within 24 hours we will be talking about the next nightmare thing this incompetent blowjob cooks up.
Oh is he going to force countries to buy 737 Max's because of evil certification programs next?
Carneys best move here is 🤷♂️ Even without the Bombardier threat - Trumps ultimatum is to put 50% tariffs on an expensive VERY durable good?
Beyond the obvious things here - TACO, he's just ranting - this is also self-contradictory, isn't it? Decertify, so you can't sell it, and also a 50% tariff...on the thing you can't sell? Am I reading this right?
Literally every major U.S. airline uses a *lot* of Canadian-made Bombardier regional jets in their fleets. So yeah, this should go over well with them.
If we could just harness the power of this stupid, we could light and heat large metropolises and rural power grids for centuries!
This is one of those crazy rants of his that he can't possibly actually stick with for more than two weeks. I'm guessing we end up at no decertifications, 10% tariff.
The US president played this on AF-1, on repeat, all the way home from Davos. youtu.be/mIsnIt1p978?...
"Now you'll excuse me as I go kiss Putin's ass. Again."
I could be wrong, and certainly tell me if so, but I suspect a lot of these aircraft that are (allegedly) getting grounded are the ones that fly lower-demand hub-spoke routes to smaller cities like ATL-Mobile or DEN-Boise. In other words the most-inconvenienced people are likely to be red staters.
and it's for a bunch of... "2 engine business jets"? So it's so his friends can fly their private aircraft into Canada easier?
It’s not just that Trump is corrupt and a dictator and just the worst person possible for the job. He’s also a stone cold idiot.
America has been steadfastly kicking ourselves in the nuts for over a decade at this point
And what about parts?
🤡
Probably AF1 and his marine 1.
Go suck your miniature dick, punk
He has finally figured out that Canada is going to buy Saab Gripen E's, not F-35s.
Thing to remember is this isn't an Executive Order at this point in time. It's just the old man yelling at the clouds. If it's an Ex Order it will also put an end to lots of GA not just biz jets but also aerial fighter fighting & personal aviation with comp like Diamond & Viking.
Is this on top of the 100% tariff for making a trade deal with China?
Gulfstream seems to think that Transport Canada HAS certified the G500/G550: gulfstreamnews.com/en/news/?id=...
Good fucking luck cancelling half of your regional flights because of a demented pedo fascist. All CRJs automatically grounded
