MDA Space - Canada

Global headquarters of MDA Space and our Space Robotics Centre of Excellence, this new world-class space infrastructure facility will be home to Canadarm3 and will include the world’s first commercial space robotics mission operations center.

This world leading design, manufacturing and test facility is our center of excellence for our communications satellites. At the edge of Montreal’s West Island, this site dates back to the early days of the space age. A companion site also exists in Baie-D'Urfé.

Stretched across the National Capital Region, MDA Space has locations in Kanata, Nepean and Cantley, QC. These sites are helping MDA Space lead the way in space sensors and geospatial intelligence operations, analytics and products.

Part of our Earth and Space Observation business, this facility is ideally located to support our work with the Royal Canadian Navy and other maritime domain awareness activities.

Home to our Earth and Space Observation business, MDA Space was founded in British Columbia in 1969, and was an early catalyst to the province’s now-booming tech scene.
