This is in respects to Bombardier having a considerable advantage over Boeing due to communist tactics of covert and overt support for the Canadian company by the Canadian and provincial government. A tactic repeated across multiple industries and provinces in Canada (see GM and Ford for instance in Ontario, Canada gave hundreds of millions to steal U.S jobs).

I believe as time goes on, more and more Americans are realizing the stark differences between Canada and America, both in terms of individual liberty, justice and capitalism (which in Canada, neither of the aforementioned exists).

U.S. trade commission will proceed with Bombardier investigation

The U.S. International Trade Commission has voted to continue its investigation into the trade practices of Bombardier Inc.

"There is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is threatened with material injury by reason of imports of 100- to 150-seat large civil aircraft from Canada that are allegedly subsidized and sold in the United States at less than fair value," a release from the commission said.

Boeing, Bombardier's rival, filed a petition with the USITC in April asking it to consider anti-dumping and countervailing duties against the Canadian company's CSeries passenger aircraft.

The unanimous decision by the five commissioners follows hearings last month. A report on the ITC's finding of injury will be made public after July 10.

Friday's vote means a separate investigation by the U.S. Commerce Department will continue.

A preliminary determination on countervailing duties is expected on or about July 21. A decision on anti-dumping duties will follow in early October. This chain of decisions leads to a final levy set against the Canadian aircraft.

Boeing is calling for countervailing duties of 79.41 per cent and anti-dumping duties of 79.82 per cent.

The U.S. company accuses Bombardier of running "an aggressive campaign" to dump its civilian aircraft in the U.S.
