Bombardier CEO Eric Martel said on Monday he was concerned Washington could target the private planemaker’s U.S. contracts if Canada cancels a C$19 billion ($13.30 billion) deal for 88 Lockheed Martin F-35 fighter jets.
“Effectively, we could be targeted. This is my concern,” Martel told reporters in Montreal after a speech hosted by the Canadian Club.
In October, Montreal-based Bombardier announced the delivery of an eighth jet to the United States Air Force as part of a deal with a potential value of $465 million. The aircraft carry specialized communications platforms.
Buddy the last time we were at parity was twelve years ago.
Just looked it up, BRP was sold off from Bombardier in 2003…
Okay okay…
But tbh that only points to more shitty decisions at Bombardier. BRP is doing fine, getting rid of it was moronic.
