   Bombardier stock dives on Trump threats

   Shares of Canadian aeroplane maker Bombardier have plunged after United   
   States President Donald Trump threatened to decertify the private jet   
   maker’s large-cabin planes “and all Aircraft made in Canada”, and slap 50   
   percent import tariffs on new planes until Canada certified the latest   
   aircraft produced by US rival Gulfstream.   
      
   The aeroplane maker’s stock was down 9 percent Friday morning on the heels   
   of Trump’s late Thursday threats.   
      
   While a White House official told the Reuters news agency that Trump was   
   not suggesting decertifying Canadian-built planes currently in operation,   
   the president’s warning on Thursday night caused confusion and alarm among   
   airlines and aviation analysts, along with buyers and owners of private   
   jets.   
      
   “If, for any reason, this situation is not immediately corrected, I am   
   going to charge Canada a 50% Tariff on any and all aircraft sold into the   
   United States of America,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.   
      
   Soar Aviation Law lawyer Amanda Applegate, a US specialist in business   
   aviation law, said on Friday the post had prompted queries from clients   
   who own, or want to buy, Bombardier planes.
