Marc Garneau was the first Canadian in space, and later served as Transport Minister and Foreign Affairs Minister under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. In this revealing one-on-one conversation we talk about his "Most Extraordinary Ride", a phrase that both describes his life and is the name of his new memoir. We cover topics as wide-ranging as Canada’s space program, the rise of commercial space travel, his roll in navigating the country through the Covid pandemic, and his frustrations working with Justin Trudeau and the Prime Minister’s office.
