There was a significant announcement this afternoon that shipyards on the East and West coasts of Canada have been awarded huge contracts to build ships for Canada. Twenty-five billion dollars to Halifax and eight billion dollars to North Vancouver companies. For anyone with skills in this field, or the support industries it is very good news. I hope this brings smiles to some of you on the Forum!
