Canada Invests $11.3B in Quebec Shipbuilding | Calgary News

The federal government is pouring $11.3 billion into Quebec’s shipbuilding sector, funding six new icebreakers for the Canadian Coast Guard — the biggest deal in the province’s history. Construction kicks off next fall at Chantier Davie, with the first ship launching in five years and all six ready by 2045. This massive investment secures 5,000 jobs during construction, supports Canadian steel, and aligns with the “Buy Canadian” strategy. It comes amid tense U.S. trade talks, making this a major win for domestic industry — part of a broader plan to deliver 88 new vessels by 2045.
