    I am absolutely loving all these deals Carney is cutting with other countries, especially European partners. He was elected to diversify our trade away from the US, and he is doing exactly that. 

    Edit: the official press release from the PM seems to have a lot more information for those interested. 

    It is many planes, not sure why the headline says “plane” singular. At least 40 will be built here in Canada.

    Oh great, so now we have to assemble it with an Allen wrench from a flat packed box! /s just to be clear.
