MDA SPACE PROVIDES MARKET UPDATE
BRAMPTON, ON, May 2, 2025 /CNW/ - MDA Space Ltd. (TSX: MDA), a trusted mission partner to the rapidly expanding global space industry, today issued the following statement in response to share price fluctuations.
"MDA Space is monitoring fluctuations in its share price that appear to be related to publication of the preliminary FY2026 NASA budget recommendations made by the White House and potential implications for the NASA-led Gateway project. MDA Space management reiterates that the company's Canadarm3 program associated with the Gateway project is under a contract with the Canadian Space Agency and not with NASA. The Canadarm3 contract serves multiple purposes including both space agency and commercial opportunities. There has been no change to any MDA Space contract as a result of these US budget deliberations.
MDA Space management will provide a full update on its business outlook as part of its next regular earnings release, scheduled for May 8, 2025."

LAC provides funding to 37 local organizations in support of Canada's documentary heritage
Library and Archives Canada is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2025–2026 funding cycle of the Documentary Heritage Communities Program GATINEAU, QC, June 4, 2025 /CNW/ - This year, archives, museums and documentary heritage institutions will share $1.425 million to carry out 37 projects selected under Library and Archives Canada's (LAC) Documentary Heritage Communities Program (DHCP). View the projects funded by the DHCP in 2025–2026: These projects were selected for the significant impact they will have on documentary heritage preservation, and access, and in the broader community. LAC funding empowers local recipient organizations to allocate essential resources to projects aimed at enhancing access and awareness of their collections, while also bolstering their capacity to safeguard Canada's documentary heritage. Heritage organizations play a vital role in preserving Canada's local memory. LAC is proud to contribute to documenting, preserving and making accessible to the public a memory that reflects Canadian experiences, cultures and society. About Library and Archives Canada The mandate of LAC is to acquire and preserve the documentary heritage of Canada for the benefit of present and future generations and to be a source of enduring knowledge accessible to all, contributing to the cultural, social and economic advancement of Canada. LAC also facilitates cooperation among communities involved in the acquisition, preservation and diffusion of knowledge and serves as the continuing memory of the Government of Canada and its institutions. Quotes " I would like to congratulate all the recipients this year. I also want to express my gratitude for the outstanding efforts they put forth in educating and informing Canadians about their history. We take pride in supporting these initiatives, which will further empower local institutions and contribute to the development of more resilient communities." —The Honourable Steven Guilbeault, Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture and Minister responsible for Official Languages "My heartfelt congratulations to all the recipients! Your dedication to documenting and preserving your community's history is truly commendable. It brings me much joy to see how LAC is able to support amazing projects like yours through yearly funding. Now, more than ever, it's essential for LAC and communities across Canada to stay committed to making our shared stories accessible to everyone." —Leslie Weir, Librarian and Archivist of Canada "LAC's DHCP funding was crucial for the ICC Canada Archives in 2024-2025. This funding allowed us to enable access to Inuit documentary heritage in Inuktitut. Inuktitut is a living language and the first language of many Inuit in Canada." — Lisa Mullins, Archivist, Inuit Circumpolar Council Canada "The funding from the DHCP has made an immense difference to the organization. In the recordings currently restored and made accessible, there are notable musicians, whose legacy will be remembered." — Felix Rowe, Administrative officer, National Youth Orchestra of Canada Quick Facts Since the creation of the DHCP in 2015, LAC has provided $16.395 million in support of 407 documentary heritage community projects. This year, of the 37 recipients, 9 organizations will receive funding for Indigenous documentary heritage projects, and nine organizations will receive funding for Francophone documentary heritage projects. An organization can receive funding of up to $50,000 per year (up to $60,000 for a remote organization) to implement its project. The next call for proposals to apply for funding will be issued in the fall of 2025. Associated Links

Xanadu Unveils First On-Chip Error-Resistant Photonic Qubit
TORONTO, June 4, 2025 /CNW/ - Xanadu has achieved a significant milestone in the development of scalable quantum hardware by generating error-resistant photonic qubits on an integrated chip platform. A foundational result in Xanadu's roadmap, this first-ever demonstration of such qubits on a chip is now published in Nature. This breakthrough builds on Xanadu's recent announcement of the Aurora system, which demonstrated—for the first time—all key components required to build a modular, networked, and scalable photonic quantum computer. With this latest demonstration of robust qubit generation using silicon-based photonic chips, Xanadu further strengthens the scalability pillar of its architecture. The quantum states produced in this experiment, known as GKP states, consist of superpositions of many photons to encode information in an error-resistant manner—an essential requirement for future fault-tolerant quantum computers. These states allow logic operations to be performed using deterministic, room-temperature-compatible techniques, and they are uniquely well-suited for networking across chips using standard fiber connections. This demonstration of generating photonic qubits was enabled by a number of key technological achievements from Xanadu's hardware team. These include the development of photon-number-resolving detectors with detection efficiencies above 99%, the fabrication of customized ultra-low loss silicon nitride waveguides on 300 mm wafer platforms, and the implementation of in-house state-of-the-art optical packaging. "GKP states are, in a sense, the optimal photonic qubit, since they enable logic gates and error correction at room temperature and using relatively straightforward, deterministic operations," says Zachary Vernon, CTO of Hardware at Xanadu. "This demonstration is an important empirical milestone showing our recent successes in loss reduction and performance improvement across chip fabrication, component design, and detector efficiency." The next hurdle towards a utility-scale photonic quantum computer remains clear: further reduction of optical loss will allow for higher quality GKP states suitable for fault-tolerance. With another significant milestone in its hardware roadmap complete, Xanadu remains focused on further optimizing fabrication and photonics packaging processes to alleviate optical loss across its platform. About Xanadu: Xanadu is a Canadian quantum computing company with the mission to build quantum computers that are useful and available to people everywhere. Founded in 2016, Xanadu has become one of the world's leading quantum hardware and software companies. The company also leads the development of PennyLane, an open-source software library for quantum computing and application development. Visit or follow us on X @XanaduAI.
