From Global News.

Transport Minister Steven MacKinnon says Canada needs to be able to conduct its own space launches without relying on the U.S. for the capability and has introduced new legislation to start that work.

MacKinnon introduced the Canadian Space Launch Act on Tuesday in the House of Commons with the goal to “authorize, regulate and oversee homegrown space launches and re-entry” in the future.

It follows the successful Artemis II mission completed this month, where Canadian Space Agency astronaut Jeremy Hansen was one of four astronauts to travel the farthest in space a human has ever gone.
