Maxime Bernier, Canadian member of Parliament for the Conservative Party of Canada and former Minister of Foreign Affairs, at the press conference to announce the start of the construction work of the Rio Tinto Alcan Planetarium, at Montreal on August 25, 2011.

The Rio Tinto Alcan Planetarium will include two immersion theatres, hosting multimedia shows using the latest technology. They will each be housed in a circular structure resembling a telescope peering out at the Universe, and will offer unique experiences for visitors. One will appeal to their minds, and the other to their emotions.
