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)
