“We are investing in Canada's ability to launch our own spacecraft. It will bring in billions of dollars, create good jobs, and make us less dependent on the United States.”
“Mr. Speaker, establishing sovereign space launch capabilities in Canada will generate billions of dollars in investment, create well-paying jobs, strengthen Canada’s sovereignty, reduce our dependence on the United States, and support a commercial space launch and re-entry sector. This could represent as much as $40 billion. That is what we are investing in. These are essential capabilities that protect Canada and generate significant economic benefits for Canadians.”
