Canada ordering an additional 10 Canadian Coast Guard vessels, worth an estimated $3.3 billion

863a4ac9dc_64635696_o2Vancouver shipbuilders got a huge surprise Monday, as the federal government announced it is ordering an additional 10 Canadian Coast Guard vessels, worth an estimated $3.3 billion. That is on top of the $8 billion already on the books at Vancouver Shipyards for new Coast Guard science and fishery ships, naval resupply vessels and a heavy icebreaker, and represents a huge vote of confidence as the shipyard prepares to cut steel on the first of those ships. mre@montrealgazette  14:49
