On Monday, June 1, executives from six of Canada’s aerospace and space companies appeared before the House of Commons Standing Committee on National Defence (NDDN) to discuss the impact of the new Defence Industrial Strategy (DIS). While the committee heard from aerospace heavyweights Pierre Seïn Pyun of Bombardier and France Hébert of CAE, it was the unified front presented by Canada’s launch startups that spoke to sovereign launch while MDA Space spoke to procurement reform.
