Mr. Speaker, establishing Canadian sovereign space launch capabilities is going to drive billions of dollars in investments. It is going to create good-paying jobs, increase Canada's sovereignty, reduce our economy's reliance on the United States and support a commercial space launch and re-entry industry that could be worth up to $40 billion. This is what we are investing in, essential capabilities that protect Canada and create massive economic benefits for Canadians. How can the Conservatives be against that?
