JUST ANNOUNCED: Nova Scotia’s Irving Shipbuilding will build TWO NEW Arctic Offshore Patrol Ships specifically for the Canadian Coast Guard.

  • Not only does this support the incredible work of the Canadian Coast Guard, it secures well-paying jobs in Nova Scotia. Did you know that lots of this work takes place in Dartmouth?
  • Plus, across Canada, we’ll be revitalizing the entire Canadian Coast Guard Fleet, and building 16 more large multi-purpose ships to ensure that the Canadian Coast Guard can continue to protect mariners and our environment.
  • From rapid environmental response and research, to protecting mariners in distress—Nova Scotians know how important the Canadian Coast Guard is to our communities.
