Let’s not forget who set the Artemis II lunar trip into motion, President Biden. This was before Canada hated us. I should have known. Biden met the Astronauts: NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, along with CSA astronaut Jeremy Hansen.

The NASA authorization Act of 2010 mandated development of the hardware needed for what would become the Artemis mission. The heavy launch rocket, the SLS; continued development of the Orion crew capsule into the MPCV, and the first test flight of the unmanned Orion crew capsule.
