CP NewsAlert: Canada OKs latest Gulfstream business jets after Trump tariff threat

By Canadian Press on February 24, 2026.

Federal regulators are giving the thumbs-up to Gulfstream G700 and G800 business jets after tariff threats from U.S. President Donald Trump over the planes’ status.

A Transport Canada database shows that it certified the American company’s latest private planes on Monday, roughly a week after green-lighting two older Gulfstream models.

Trump threatened last month to decertify and place tariffs on Canadian-built planes unless the government approved Gulfstream business jets.

More coming.
