I am honoured to receive the Congressional Space Medal of Honor alongside my Artemis II crewmates. I share this recognition with everyone who made this mission possible. For Canada, the mission and the Artemis program as a whole are about much more than just going back to the Moon. It is about the pursuit of excellence and collaboration.

#WATCH# | Chandigarh | Punjab Minister Harpal Singh Cheema says, "After the Aam Aadmi Party government came to power in Punjab, we tightened the noose on those who were evading taxes. Under that, we have caught the biggest tax evasion to date. These people were perpetrating fraud in the transport sector by creating fake and forged bills. About 62 companies that were registered were involved in this. They had registrations in 62 places. When we investigated, this scam came to light. We have also taken strict action against it, sent the accused to jail, and we are recovering the dues. We will not let even a single penny of Punjab's treasury go to waste. In Punjab too, they had registrations at 25 places, and we have initiated action against them..."
