For active Canadian Space Agency (CSA) astronauts, is the best contact through CSA or Johnson Space Center, or is it entirely astronaut specific?

I think it depends on the astronaut. I have had luck in the past simply sending an email to the CSA and have gotten signed photos that way.

Recently I got a signed and inscribed photo from Saint-Jacques via JSC.

I too previously emailed and received autographs for my son. The representative at CSA did advise it would take longer for those no longer in active service, but would send the request to them.

In the end if you "forget about it" it's a nice surprise to receiving it in the mail.

Wrote to the Canadian Space Agency seeking four of their more recent individual astronaut lithos.

The answer was a polite "no," as they're now for Canadian consumption only. Disappointing.

I just mailed prints of my own. Hopefully those will go through...

Nice surprise in the post today from the CSA — a signed photo of David Saint-Jacques. Difficult times for all at the moment, so things like this mean a lot.
