    The document discusses how recent changes to Canada's New Building Canada Fund will enable significant investments in transit infrastructure like ferry fleet replacements. Many Canadian ferries are past repair and need replacement to keep crossings operational. The fund will inject billions for transportation projects through public-private partnerships, positioning Canadian ferry operators and shipbuilders like Davie Shipbuilding to benefit. Davie offers a fast-track solution to reduce upfront costs for ferry operators and owners.

    New Building Canada Fund and the Canadian Ferry Fleet

    PASSENGER VESSELS | FERRIES Recent changes to the Federal Government New Building Canada Fund will enable
    significant investments for transit infrastructure systems, including but not limited
    to ferry fleet replacements and refits.

    Many of our Canadian ferries owned federally, provincially or privately are in a state
    which constitutes some urgent intervention. These vessels are beyond the age
    where repair is a feasible option and we need to look to a replacement option to
    keep these crossings operational. To aid with this imperative need ferry operators
    across Canada will now have access to the New Building Canada Fund. This fund
    would inject billions of dollars in transportation infrastructure projects, under the
    condition that the proposed projects be completed within a three-year schedule.

    Under this fund, the Federal Government plans on funding projects delivered as
    “Public-Private Partnerships” (P3). Canadian Ferry Operators, Davie Shipbuilding and
    other shipyards throughout Canada are in an excellent position to jointly benefit
    from this Federal Government initiative.

    Davie Shipbuilding is Canada’s largest and highest capacity shipbuilder with a large
    facility, modernized infrastructure and a dedicated workforce which today exceeds
    1,300 skilled shipbuilders and support staff.

    Davie is offering Canadian ferry operators with a fast-track solution, designed to


    help reduce upfront costs for ferry operators and owners. Davie has a proven track
    record working within the P3 contractual model - our current program for the
    Royal Canadian Navy has created an alternative ownership model for the Federal
    Government using Canadian institutional financing, which can be easily applied to
    Canada’s ferry fleet.

    This initiative led by Davie Shipbuilding is a win for the ferry owners and operators
    of Canada, it is a win for Canada’s shipbuilders while providing benefits for various
    levels of government.
    PASSENGER VESSELS | FERRIES
    Davie is a global leader in the construction and upgrade of ferries and
    passenger vessels. From cruise vessels to day-ferries, Davie is recognized
    for its innovative capabilities in the construction of unique designs
    and characteristics, which include elements such as bow-loading door
    systems, double-ended terminal connections, LNG propulsion and high
    ice-class capabilities.

    Newfoundland & Labrador Ro-Ro Ferry

    The Roll-on-Roll-off Ferry with enclosed vehicle deck created from a concept
    design of NAVTECH, for year-round sailing across the Strait of Belle Isle between
    Newfoundland and Labrador. This vessel has been designed with an optimized hull
    form and a low profile configuration to reduce the overall resistance and thereby
    reduce fuel consumption and improve performance management.

    Length: 114.8 metres


    Beam: 18.5 metres

    STQ LNG-Powered Ro-Pax Ferries

    The dual-fuel LNG ice-class ferries built by Chantier Davie Canada Inc. for the
    Société des Traversiers du Québec to a Concept Naval / STX design, represent the
    first LNG-propelled ferries built in North America.

    Length: 92 metres
    Beam: 24.6 metres

    Ontario Ro-Pax Ferry

    Davie’s proposal prepared for the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario, received


    short listed shipbuilder qualification status for the construction and delivery of a
    Ro-Pax ferry to be used on the Peele Island ferry route. The requirements for the
    design manoeuvrability of combined high cross wind and strong current in port
    were considered for the propulsion machinery and especially for bow thruster
    capacity.

    Length: 64.5 metres


    Beam: 15 metres
