Government of Canada Selects Spaceport Nova Scotia as Dedicated Sovereign Launch Site

The Government of Canada selection marks a major signal for the role Spaceport Nova Scotia can play in national launch capability, defence readiness, and allied mission planning.

For Maritime Launch Services, the announcement connects years of site development, regulatory work, and infrastructure planning to a broader Canadian need: reliable domestic access to orbit.

The Canso site offers Atlantic range geometry, a Canadian operating base, and a path for commercial infrastructure to support strategic public-sector requirements.
