And the telsat constellation won't require thousands of satellites in orbit like starlink and others that will clog up the sky and pollute the atmosphere as they burn up and get relaunched. Less than 150 sats for telsat if I remember correctly.

Due to some of them having a higher orbit. It's an interesting solution. Imagine how different Ukraine would be if they weren't geo-restricted.
Thank God. I plan to retire to an area with little to no internet support and had been planning to get Starlink (prior to Jan. 20th) when I did because there were no other plausible options.
Cool, I'm very eager to get starlink out of this country.
I'd be even happier to get it out of the sky entirely. Even if no one in Canada uses it, what's to say those satellites don't have the capacity to capture our communications, photograph our cities, farms, bases, and even more, and feed it directly to someone who would sell it to the highest bidder without a thought?
We already have spy satellites. Not saying they're not a problem, but you don't have to look to Starlink for that one.
