Marc Garneau told reporters in Ottawa that Transport Canada might not take any action but he thought it would be wise to re-examine the validation of the 737 MAX 8 jet, which has been grounded worldwide for safety concerns following the recent crash of an Ethiopian plane of that model, which killed 157 people.

Canada accepted the FAA’s March 2017 certification of the MAX under a deal where such approvals by the United States are accepted by Canada and vice versa. Garneau added that Transport Canada would do its own certification of a software change being prepared by Boeing within the next few weeks “even if it’s certified by the FAA.”Citing people familiar with the inquiry, the Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday that U.S. Department of Transportation officials were scrutinizing the FAA approval of MAX jets and that a grand jury in Washington subpoenaed at least one person involved in developing the MAX.

If these two planes were purposely crashed by outside influences, how would our leaders behave?

Hard test...

Should have gone with Airbus. American plane socialism.

Boeing aeroplane must be good&luxurious but we need mature, well-trained&discipline pilots with high skills. So plz avoid engaging pilots with character&instability which brings down d reputation of ur company.
