2. Executive Summary
• All indications are that the marine industry in Canada is entering a new stage of
development. Some say that there is a boom in demand that is helping the Ship
Building industry rapidly expand.
• Industry players are busy building, modifying, converting and repairing ships including
warships, icebreakers, ferries and offshore platforms.
• There is a demand for the latest technology in ice breaking ships. A need for a passage
through the north in Summer is not something new. Commercial and cruise liners have
been asking for it for years. The Government would like 6 new Arctic Patrol ships. At
this time 2 have been commissioned.
• There is a need for up-to-date ferries in many regions. The Government of the Province
of Ontario has ordered one from a shipbuilder in Chile.
• The Canadian Navy and Coast Guard require up-to-date technology. Retied Naval
officers say the Canadian war ships have reached the end of their usefulness!
• Smaller, more efficient vessels for movement of cargo through the Great Lakes are in
demand.
• The segment of the marine industry involved with fishing vessels is booming.

• Industry dependent upon Government assistance
• Shipbuilding revenue grows at the same pace as the economy
• Consolidation expected, small companies will have a difficult time
• Technological changes are and will continue to be critical
• Government of Canada formed the National Shipbuilding
Procurement Strategy (NSS). Its 20 year mission is to:
• revitalize the Canadian Navy & Coast Guard
• develop and expand the country’s shipbuilding industry

Because domestic shipyards are uncompetitive with foreign producers, imports are very strong,
particularly in the commercial sector. Competition increased when the Government dropped the
import tariff of 25% on ships. Italy and Norway have highly specialized industries that can produce
ships for Canada’s energy companies. The shipyards in China and South Korea take advantage
of their lower labour costs.

15. Seaspan
Seaspan is owned by the Washington Group, an American publicly owned
company. It is well known that the company is a major user of American
technology, labour and suppliers. One source said that most of the skilled middle
management at Seaspan come from California, Oregon and Washington.
Tim Page, VP Communications & Government Relations at Seaspan was asked
to discuss work in process. He suggested a review of the company web site will
provide any information required. When asked specifically about the work in
process; the ferries and icebreaker to be repaired and build this decade, his
response was polite and to the point; “ All information is on our company web
site”.
The web site indicates that Seaspan is building a 3,000 ton off shore research
vessel for the Canadian Coast Guard.
Two reliable sources indicated that there are problems with the supply chain and
with labour. Seaspan is very late and may default on this contract.

24. Irving Shipyard
• Many years ago the company made a progressive move. It closed the St. John’s, NL yard
and bought the “old” Halifax, NS yard. Offers construction for large ship repairs – up to
40,000 ton vessels.
• The shipyard did the required repair and upgrade work on 7 of the Halifax class Canadian
navy ships and is presently building the Harry Dewolf,1 of 3 Arctic offshore ice breakers.
The job will be completed before the end of 2016. They are waiting (or perhaps have
arrived) for doors for the cabins that are being custom made by a European supplier.
• Also in process is a super module built in 63 blocks to be assembled onto a transport
vessel and later moved onto a barge for launch.
• One of the key’s to Irving’s success is the help provided by the Danish company, Odense
Maritime Technology (OMT). The assistance was provided in particular for recruiting of
proper staff. http://www.odensemaritime.com/da-DK/About-us/OMT-profile.aspx
• The person interviewed who is close to the people at Irving (not an employee) told the
author of this Report that Jenny Braat of the Danish Government’s maritime office is
actively looking to Canada for other opportunities in the marine industry.

28. Davie Shipyard
• Davie Shipyards have been bought and sold a few times. The new
owners see an opportunity in Canada. One phone conversation
with the CEO of the parent company Inocea, and a 2 hour face-to-
face meeting with the CEO of Federal Fleet, a company owned by
Inocea, yield the same result; the “new” Davie shipyard will do as
much as possible to succeed in the shipbuilding business.
• They both see the need, recognize the demand and feel the timing is
right.
• The only thing that the industry requires is proper financial support.
• Both gentlemen have met with Government officials responsible for
shipbuilding and defence for Canada. As well, have had discussions
with Ambassadors form countries interested in shipbuilding in
Canada.

31. 5. Big Projects
• In June 2010, the Government announced the NSS. Through this strategy, Canada will replace the
current surface fleets of the Royal Canadian Navy and the Canadian Coast Guard, which are
reaching the end of their operational lives.
• First in line will be the Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ships (AOPS) for the Royal Canadian Navy in the
combat package. These will be followed by the Canadian Surface Combatant. The Joint Support
Ships will be built for the Royal Canadian Navy under the non-combat work package.
• The AOPS project will deliver six ice-capable offshore patrol ships and associated jetty
infrastructure in Esquimalt, BC on the Pacific, Halifax, NS on the Atlantic and Nanisivik, NU, in the
Arctic.
• On March 7, 2013, the first two design contracts of the AOPS ships were awarded to Irving
Shipbuilding. With this contract, Irving Shipbuilding will refine and complete the AOPS design to a
production-ready state. This contract will be followed by a construction contract in 2015
• On January 23, 2015, the awarding of the build contract with Irving Shipbuilding Inc. was
announced for the construction of six AOPS.
• September 1, 2015, construction of the first AOPS, the future HMCS Harry DeWolf, began.
• August 25, 2016, the AOPS project marked another significant milestone with the cutting of steel of
the future HMCS Margaret Brooke, the second ship in the class.
L.B.C. Consulting Services 31

32. 6. Quick Facts
• There is a collaborative effort between Department of Defence, the Navy, and more than
thirty companies within the Canadian shipbuilding industry to deliver the modernization of
the Canadian Fleet.
• The first modernized frigates re-entered service in late 2014. Currently, nine of the Navy’s
twelve frigates have already been returned. Two frigates are in their reactivation phase
and one is in refit as part of the Halifax-Class Modernization program.
• Before the end of 2016, HMCS Toronto, the seventh and final frigate on the East Coast is
expected that its modernization to be completed by the Irving Shipyard in Halifax. This will
mean all twelve of the Halifax-class frigates, five on the West Coast and seven on the East
Coast, will be fully modernized.
• The Halifax-class frigates continue to be the backbone of the Royal Canadian Navy fleet
until the arrival of the future fleet of Canadian Surface Combatants.
• The modernization and life extension of the Halifax-class frigates represents an
investment of $4.3 billion and will allow the frigates to serve the Navy until the early-to-
mid-2030s.
L.B.C. Consulting Services 32

33. 6. Quick Facts- continued
• The NSS is a long term initiative. An estimated 15,000 jobs and
$2 billion in annual economic benefits are expected to be
generated through the implementation of this strategy.
• To date, $211 million (only 10%) in contracts to suppliers in Canada
has been awarded, and more than 160 companies in Canada have
already benefited from these investments.
• Small boat construction is booming. Key is new technology for the
fishing industry. There is a consortium out of Newfoundland active
in the industry looking to build smaller ships; under 500 tons.
L.B.C. Consulting Services 33

34. 7. Opportunities for Finnish Companies
• 25% tariff on ships by Canadian Government was removed, combined with the
Canadian – European Free Trade Agreement will definitely have a positive
effect.
• Short term; depends on what expertise the Finnish companies offer.
• Long term; 5 to 10 years, big opportunity. A “hot” topic in Canada are the Arctic
Ice Class Ships, both commercial and Government.
• The Ice Breakers work in Canada in summer, reverse season in Finland.
• The most efficient process is for the Finnish companies to research the particular
details of the market. See if the expertise the Finns offer is lacking in Canada.
Form strategic alliances.
• The people from Davie Shipyards have had joint discussions with the
Ambassador from Finland and the people from Finpro.
L.B.C. Consulting Services 34

35. 8. Summary
• Presently there are only 3 Canadian shipyards capable of building ocean going
vessels. These shipbuilding companies are:
• Davie (Quebec City)
• Irving (Halifax)
• Seaspan (Vancouver)
• Davie is owned by a foreign corporation involved with the marine industry. The two
key executives, who were interviewed by the author of this Report, were quite positive.
The company already has a relationship with the a Finnish Company. The company is
interested in a lease – buy back agreements.
• Irving is a private company. All indications are such that the company is doing well.
There has been technical and employee support from the Danes. Rumour has it that
owners at Irving have a good relationship with both the Federal and Nova Scotia
Provincial Governments.
• Seaspan is owned by the Washington Group, an American Public company. The
shipbuilding division is not doing well. It’s projects are late and over budget. Due to
the number of jobs involved, this division is presently being Government supported.
L.B.C. Consulting Services 35

36. 9. Supplementary – Interviews
• John Carter, well known in Canada as a marine architect, when asked, “What
is the state of the shipbuilding industry in Canada?” replied “a mess”. He went
on to say the problem was the short sightedness of the Federal and Provincial
Governments.
• He mentioned that the Ontario Government is having a Ferry built to
specification in Chile, South America and looking to commission another one.
• Mr. Carter left the design of large ships, in particular ice breakers, 15 years ago
to work on small boats because, as he put it; “There is business in building ice
breakers but it will take too long and too much money, before things straighten
out!”.
• Some say the industry in unstable. Others say that now would be a good time
to form strategic alliances.
• Some say the Canadian Government must do more to support the industry;
others feel, foreign investment would be welcomed.L.B.C. Consulting Services 36
