Nordspace gearing up to launch rockets from Newfoundland soon, really excited for the future of Canadian space ventures.

    I remember when Starlink initially began on beta, it started in Canada because it took fewer satellites to cover the upper part of the northern hemisphere. We could always just stop there.

    Super easy to cut off all ties to the USA.

    We need our own version of Starlink. The vast majority in rural areas are supporting the Nazi because of lack of alternatives.

    I get what you're saying, and it is true that these limited options benefit Musk (better ground infrastructure would also help), but it is funny that the wording here implies that rural people would need much incentive to, "support the Nazi."
