New Canadian Shipbuilding Strategy

[Spencer100]

Oh the new DHC doesn't have the horse power to design much new either. They have their hand full getting the plant built and servicing the planes out there already. They could maybe do something the DASH 8, the Twin Otter or the water bomber. They just got a cargo and combi version of the Dash 8 certified. A new Dash 7 is a never. The buffalo is lonnnnng shot as to be a no.

Once upon a time Canada had a clue - and imagination.

New coast guard icebreaker rests in Collingwood this week

CCGS Judy LaMarsh is in Collingwood's harbour this week for a crew change and for icebreaking operations in Georgian Bay; it's a new ship for the coast guard, and is currently being tested before conversion

The new caspian icebreaker is getting worked in on Georgian Bay. Pretty quick to be put to work

Not going swimmingly with Davie.

I bet both sides are trying to drive a hard bargain. GOC saying you wanted this so you not going to Irving us....Davie saying hello we're Quebec Inc. and voting is not too far away.

Curious what they'll have to do IOT get the yard upgrades done and if it will impact the ongoing repair work (TOR is there at the moment). They needed less upgrades than the other two yards but still needed some to come up to the NSS standards from 2010, which theoretically would have increased in the last 13 years to keep up with the industry standards for modern building.

The thicker steel is more forgiving but does mean all the welding/forming takes longer so errors cost more to fix, and it's a good sized ship.

Davie is apparently looking to purchase the assets of Helsinki Shipyard as of today. They seem to be another yard specializing in ice strengthened vessels, could be an interesting purchase. Could this mean anything for Canada's future procurements going forward? More capable Davie?

Remember, please, when we say "Chantier Davie" we are NOT talking about Québec Inc, any more. We're talking about the UK based Inocea Group which has global ambitions - not reach, but ambitions.

It's still the Davies family not matter how they label it.

Wasn't that the yard that built the Astreix accommodation block?

Again, this fiction keeps getting propagated; Davie put in a bid for NSS but was 3rd place, with only 2 spots (combatant and non-combatant).

Wish they would stop this as there is a big box full of the Davie bid sitting in the NSS office with all the scoring and was considered. They just lost.

CBC is going to CBC.

Every piece by CBC must be read with a eye that it is a Liberal PR piece first and foremost. After that if any real info is presented is mostly by accident or happenstance.
