STREAM SYSTEMS APPOINTS MARK WEBSTER CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
NEW YORK, May 1, 2025 /CNW/ -- Stream Systems LLC has appointed Mark Webster as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective April 28, 2025. Webster assumes CEO duties previously performed by Founder Michael Cammarata, who remains as Stream's Executive Chairman of the Board and Head of Trading and Brokerage Services. The appointment is a key part of Stream's future-looking goal of becoming a leading platform provider for fully-electronic trading of foreign exchange options and swaps.
"I am excited to help drive this innovative company to its next phase of development," Webster said. "Michael Cammarata founded Stream with the vision of making what is still mostly a voice brokerage business fully electronic, and I believe Stream has the technology, the management, the business partners and the customer relationships needed to make that vision a reality. I am committed to seeing that happen."
Webster comes to Stream after 17 years as Executive Managing Director and General Manager of BGC Financial, LP, operating in New York, London, and Hong Kong. Prior to that, Webster was CEO, Asia Pacific and Middle East, of ICAP plc.
"Stream has grown to the point that it has become impossible for me to do all the work of a CEO while also focusing on trading to generate the revenues we need to fund our growth," Cammarata said. "Mark joining our firm, first as an investor and now as our CEO, was exactly what we needed to be able to make the jump to full electronic trading. We are all very excited for the future."
Stream was founded in 2019 by Cammarata, a leading foreign exchange broker, anticipating that peer-to-peer electronic trading of foreign exchange options and swaps was the wave of the future. FXO is one of the last financial markets still dominated by voice brokerage, and even now less than half of trades are executed without an intermediary broker. Stream has developed and owns a fully electronic trading platform, which streams prices and will permit FXO traders at major banks and other institutions to execute trades without a voice broker. The next phase of Stream's development is deploy the platform to its customers, who include 7 of the 9 leading liquidity providers in the FXO space.
Mark Webster began as a broker for Tullet and Tokyo Ltd. in 1981, first in London and then managing various trading desks in London and Sydney, Australia. From 1993 to 2004, Webster served as a Director, Managing Director, and regional CEO at ICAP in London and Sydney. From 2005 through 2021, he served as Executive Managing Director and General Manager for BGC Partners in Sydney, New York, London and Hong Kong. Webster has a diploma in economics and business from Buckingham New University, London, and is licensed by regulators in the US, UK and Asia.

Media Advisory - Simultaneous launch of Canadian space technologies Français
LONGUEUIL, QC, June 21, 2025 /CNW/ - Several technologies funded by the Canadian Space Agency under the Space Technology Development Program will be launched into space by SpaceX. These projects are a testament to Canada's leadership in space innovation. EarthDaily Analytics will use high-precision thermal imagers to monitor plant transpiration. The data collected could help farmers make decisions about irrigation, fertilization and crop rotation. It could also provide precise information about areas at greatest risk of wildfires, in order to protect our communities. INO provided infrared cameras as part of this project. Galaxia will launch its first satellite, MÖBIUS-1, a software-defined satellite designed to carry various types of Earth observation sensors. The MÖBIUS constellation could be used for a variety of applications, such as defence, environmental monitoring, agriculture, infrastructure, maritime operations and transportation. GHGSat will add two satellites to its commercial constellation, bringing the company's total to 13 methane detection satellites and one CO 2 detection satellite. Mission Control will test its onboard artificial intelligence (AI) software and machine learning operations system SpacefarerAI™ in partnership with Spire Global. Their Persistence mission aims to show how AI can analyze satellite images directly in space, thereby eliminating the need to send all data to Earth for processing. Xona Space Systems will test Pulsar, a demonstration satellite designed to validate a new generation of satellite navigation from low Earth orbit. This technology could improve precision and reliability of positioning services, including in urban areas, remote areas and the Arctic. Also contributing to the GHGSat and EarthDaily Analytics satellites are ABB 's business unit in Quebec, supplying sophisticated optical sensors, and Xiphos Systems, providing high-performance onboard processors. These innovations demonstrate the ability of Canadian companies to develop innovative technologies that meet the needs of the space program and have strong commercial potential. Media who wish to speak with a Canadian Space Agency expert or a representative from one of these Canadian companies are asked to contact the Media Relations Office.

Statement by Prime Minister Carney on National Indigenous Peoples Day Français
OTTAWA, ON, /CNW/ - "In my first months as Prime Minister, I have been grateful for the opportunity to meet with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis, and I recognize there is much more work to do together. "The government will work in full partnership with Indigenous Peoples – advancing shared priorities such as health care, food security, housing, education, economic prosperity, conservation, climate action, and emergency management to build a better future. Indigenous partnership is a critical component of the One Canadian Economy Act, and shared leadership with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis will be pivotal to the success of building major projects in Canada. "We will move forward together on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Calls to Action, the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls' Calls for Justice, and the implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act. "Supporting Indigenous communities, advancing self-determination, implementing treaties, and creating generational wealth and prosperity are central to our commitment to advancing reconciliation. Through initiatives like the Indigenous Loan Guarantee Program, we're addressing the historical, systemic, and economic barriers that have prevented Indigenous Peoples from participating in – and benefitting from – economic opportunities, particularly in the natural resource sector. "Today, on National Indigenous Peoples Day, and every day, we honour the enduring histories, cultures, and contributions of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis, and we reaffirm our partnership in reconciliation. Together, we can build a better future, a stronger economy, and a legacy that future generations can inherit and carry forward."

Through the National Action Plan to End Gender-Based Violence and the Federal Pathway to Address Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2SLGBTQQIA+ Peoples, our government is working in partnership with First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities to develop policies and fund programs to end the national crisis facing Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people. This work is essential to healing, justice and safety for Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people, wherever they live. "Our government is deeply committed to advancing reconciliation and to building lasting partnerships with Indigenous Peoples by supporting entrepreneurs, fostering economic opportunity and building an inclusive economy that leaves no one behind.
