To answer your question they can’t really do that. Certain industries are deemed important to national interest. Google MDA and their purchase by Maxar and what ensued. MDA is still a Canadian company today.

It takes two seconds to google PW and realize this is nonsense. Sounds like a bunch of people talk about things they don’t understand rather than deferring to an expert.

you have no defence beyond, I’m just asking questions

This article is an opinion piece posing as legitimate news. The criticism is short sighted and problematic. The article serves no purpose beyond pushing a false narrative. Its 100% Anti-Canadian to do the minimum research to blast PW when they have been a Canadian and Québécois institution for the last century.

Pratt & Whitney is genuinely and substantially Canadian in every way except ultimate ownership. PW does its own research, development, marketing, and manufacturing of its engines. They aren’t taking American designs and building them on Canadian soil, own owns its own product lines outright.

The PT6 turboprop is a workhorse engine and wholly Canadian. The Longueuil facility employs 4500 workers, it’s deeply woven into Quebec’s history. They recently invested $275 million into facility and have long supported Canadian aviation.

It’s shocking how many of the leftists that hate fake news and sensationalism are falling for it readily when they want their own narrative to be true. This is not news, it’s not a grift, it’s not a lie, it’s not a conspiracy. It is fake news and bullshit to push an Anti-Canadian agenda.
