Comments to Global Affairs Canada Regarding a Possible Canada-EU Digital Trade Agreement

Comments to the Office of Space Commerce Regarding the EU Space Act
Space safety is an important and shared interest of governments, private industry, and consumers around the world. But a regulatory framework for it should be evidence-based and even-handed.
