Investing.com – The head of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) stated on Tuesday that he expects Canadian aviation regulators to approve the Gulfstream jets this week, following previous threats by U.S. President Donald Trump to impose tariffs and other retaliatory measures against the country.

According to Bloomberg, FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford briefed lawmakers in Washington on air traffic control modernization and told reporters, “I believe we have resolved the issues with Canada.” Bedford indicated that, to his knowledge, the Canadian Transportation Agency will announce certification for Gulfstream aircraft this week.

This development comes after Trump posted on social media last month claiming that Canada “wrongly, illegally, and steadfastly refused to certify the Gulfstream 500, 600, 700, and 800 series jets.”

In that post, Trump threatened to revoke the certification of Bombardier Global Express and “all Canadian-made aircraft certifications until Gulfstream, this great American company, is fully certified.”
