Today, Seaspan is pleased to share that we have awarded a Master-Service Agreement worth up to $9 million to BC-based Tri-Metal Fabricators to supply more than 80,000 parts for the Canadian Coast Guard’s new heavy Polar Icebreaker. TMF has committed to delivering the work under the MSA with 100 per cent Canadian Content Value through its local workforce and materials, further advancing the goals of the National Shipbuilding Strategy to strengthen Canada’s marine and defense industrial base.
Seaspan began full-rate construction of the heavy polar icebreaker in April 2025. Once delivered, it will be the most capable vessel in the Canadian Coast Guard fleet, capable of operating year-round in the Arctic, supporting search and rescue, scientific research, and asserting Canadian sovereignty. It is the seventh ship Seaspan is delivering under the NSS.
