Canada And Space Are A Natural Fit.

I Went To Military College In Canada And Graduated As An Officer In The Navy But Also As An Engineer.

Canada's A Huge Country, So To Be Able To Unite The Country Through Communication Satellite Technology Or To Be Able To Observe It Through Remote Sensing Technology From Space Is A Natural Fit For A Country Like Canada.

You're In Orbit Over The Earth. And Suddenly It's Very, Very Quiet. It's Dramatic. You Realize You're Floating In The Straps In Your Chair. And You Take Off Your Seat Belt And Float Over To The Window And Look Out, And You Realize, "i'm Not Looking At A Picture, Here." I Couldn't Process It All. Even If I Forget Everything Else In My Life, That Will Stay With Me, Burned Into My Brain Until The Day I Die.

Through These Ongoing Activities And Possibly In The Future, A Canadian Will Go Live And Work On The International Space Station And We Will Continue To Make Canadians Proud Of Our Achievements In Space.

I Am Not As Eloquent As Stephane Dion.
