Adjournment Proceedings
An adjournment debate on federal support for Maritime Launch Services’ proposed spaceport in Nova Scotia. The Conservative member said about $200 million in federal money has gone to the project, that the company cannot launch American rockets without a signed technology safeguards agreement with the United States, and he asked when that agreement will be completed. The parliamentary secretary replied that Canada needs its own launch capability to avoid relying on foreign providers like SpaceX, and that a spaceport would create jobs and attract investment; he also pointed to Canada’s existing space industry and invited the member to visit a facility in Winnipeg. The Conservative member returned to the question of when the U.S. agreement would be signed, and the parliamentary secretary suggested raising timing questions in question period and offered to follow up.Written by AI from the debate.
