MONTRÉAL, Oct. 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — On behalf of Bombardier, our 17,000 employees and our coast-to-coast supply chain, I applaud the unanimous motion passed yesterday in the National Assembly of Quebec urging the federal government to follow an open procurement process in awarding the Canadian Multi-Mission Aircraft contract (CMMA). Further to the premiers of Ontario and Quebec joining forces last July to call on the federal government to launch a fair procurement process, this latest action from the National Assembly of Québec clearly demonstrates the importance of the aerospace industry in our country.

Bombardier’s made-in-Canada solution is based on the proven and reliable Global 6500 business jet, which is supported by an extensive Canadian supply chain, including more than 40 suppliers from Quebec’s rich aerospace ecosystem. Furthermore, allowing Bombardier and its partners to bid on the CMMA project will showcase Canada’s expertise and defense innovation on the world stage.

Bombardier’s next-generation solution will ultimately bring better value, better performance and better long-term economic impact for Canadians. We look forward to proudly presenting our bid, and seek clarity on a timeframe for a tender as part of a fair and lawful government process.
