Canada to Axe Boeing Fighter Purchase as Trade Dispute Heats Up
Canada is reportedly planning to cancel a plan to buy 18 Boeing (NYSE: BA) fighter jets, following through on threats to escalate a cross-border trade dispute with the U.S. aerospace giant. Boeing can survive the financial hit of one lost order, but needs to tread carefully to avoid things spiraling out of control.
The Canadian government intends to announce it will acquire a used fleet of older F-18 Hornet jets from Australia instead of buying new Super Hornet planes from Boeing, according to Reuters. The move is a response to Boeing launching a trade challenge accusing Montreal-based Bombardier (NASDAQOTH: BDRBF) of selling its CSeries passenger jet in the U.S. market at a drastically discounted price.
