“Canada’s innovative aerospace industry provides well-paying jobs for Canadians and contributes to our knowledge-based economy. Our government has vigorously defended Canada’s aerospace industry and its workers, including since Brazil’s initial complaint in 2017, confident that Canadian support measures fully respect international trade rules.

Canada is open to exploring the possibility of clarifying rules for all players in the aerospace sector.”
