Saviez-vous que Porter Airlines a acheté 75 avions à Embraer, au Brésil, dont les moteurs et les trains d'atterrissage ont été fabriqués au Canada par des travailleurs canadiens ? Il s'agit là d'un excellent exemple de collaboration entre des entreprises canadiennes et brésiliennes en vue de soutenir le commerce et de créer de bons emplois. J'ai rencontré le PDG d'Embraer, Francisco Gomes Neto, à São Paulo, pour discuter de la façon dont nous pouvons renforcer ce partenariat dans l'intérêt de nos travailleurs, de nos industries et de nos populations.

Did you know that Porter Airlines has purchased 75 airplanes from Embraer in Brazil—featuring engines and landing gear manufactured in Canada by Canadian workers? This is a strong example of Canadian and Brazilian companies working together to support trade and create good jobs. I sat down with @embraer CEO Francisco Gomes Neto in São Paulo to discuss how we can further strengthen this partnership for the benefit of our workers, our industries, and our people.

You can tell by the flag, that's cool new Canadian tech in space. It informs & controls spaceships as they maneuver to dock with each other - from the very clever folks @ObrutaSpace. (being tested & proven on the Space Station, @csa_asc)

When we learned that six-year-old Rosemary was interested in aviation, but had never met a woman pilot, we wanted to help. So, we invited her to Toronto and showed Rosemary what a day in the world of aviation really looks like, including a test flight in our simulator.

Great work, FGS! 👏🇨🇦 Canada's Fine Guidance Sensor is not only used for all #Webb observations, it's especially critical in tracking fast-moving objects like asteroids, comets and interstellar objects! Check out its latest high-speed feat 👇
2 Fast 2 Furious! When NASA’s #DARTMission smashed into an asteroid as a test of planetary defense, Webb was ready to capture it. But to observe that event, Webb actually had to break its tracking speed limit 3 times over. Here's how the team did it: go.nasa.gov/3lmBtZv
