@Smil3yAngel If you want Parliament to pass a law limiting foreign ownership of Canadian media...
You can sign this House of Commons petition, designed specifically for the purpose.

James Cameron says he is "not interested" in becoming an American citizen.
"I did live there for 47 years in Los Angeles, I did think about it for a while. I thought there was a lot of nobility in the 'American Democratic experience.' But where the hell did that go? I'm over it...
"I think Canadians are way over it. When there was all this talk about becoming the 51st state and all that crap, I said, 'You don't understand, 'We'll fight until the last moose!'"

NordSpace is proud to announce another major orbital launch program milestone. Alongside our ongoing orbital hardware development, we have successfully completed the high-fidelity trajectory and flight dynamics model for our Tundra orbital rocket after 2 years of intense design effort, thousands of simulations, and hundreds of physical tests.
This high-fidelity model is far more than a simulation milestone or simply selecting the vehicle's capabilities. It is the cornerstone of the entire vehicle design loop, the foundation required for regulatory commercial flight approval, and the only way to confidently predict and guarantee the performance required to achieve orbit. It integrates detailed aerodynamics, structural loads, propulsion constraints, flight mechanics, guidance, navigation, and control, and much more into a single unified framework that will guide every major design decision moving forward.
Crossing this milestone gives us the ability to continue to rapidly advance the engineering efforts behind our orbital launch architecture from engines and tanks, to GNC and GSE. Uniquely, we're focused on a lot more than just a light-lift vehicle. Our entire architecture is based upon selecting key technologies and design pathways that result in the most efficient progression from Tundra (500 kg to LEO, 350 kg to SSO) to Titan, our reusable medium lift vehicle (5,000 kg to LEO, 3,500 kg to SSO).
Our architecture even allows for the option to extend Tundra without major modifications to a Tundra+ variant, allowing for 1,100 kg to LEO and 850 kg to SSO.
It is crucial to balance the thousands of variables and parameters that go into selecting a scalable and flexible architecture which benefits from the flight heritage of decades of rocket development before us, while also ensuring the capability is globally competitive and domestically relevant to Canada.
Our Atlantic Spaceport Complex (ASX) in Newfoundland and Labrador will be experiencing significant growth, investment and construction over the coming year as it prepares to host Tundra's launches. Owning and operating our own infrastructure and manufacturing facilities, end-to-end, enables the maximum level of flexibility and efficiency we need to meet Canada's timelines to develop sovereign space launch.
Let's launch the north!

.@Kasparov63: Ukraine has been fighting for the whole of Europe. NATO was created to fight one war, to save free Europe from Russian aggression. Ukraine is the only country that is fighting this war,and we are still discussing should we include them or not
๐ฅ Trump refused to attend the G20 Summit because it was being hosted by an African Country and he couldn't stomach the idea of an African President hosting a summit that he would be attending, and possibly upstaging him.
Resultantly, this G20 summit turned out to be one of the most successful, productive and tranquil Global Leader's Event, since Trump took office! ๐โ
Everyone noticed the absence of tension and chaos that always follows wherever orange goes.
Leaders were relaxed and held productive, unifying and OPEN talks. ๐๐ผ
Prime Minister Mark Carney was star of the show. โจ
His steady leadership, deep experience and wise counsel was heavily sought after.
We are so fortunate to have this deeply respected and brilliant mind as our PM. ๐จ๐ฆ ๐
