Nice vid 👌👌👍👍👏👏

Thank you, Stephen Harper, for the multidecades National Shipbuilding Strategy plan, so Turdo couldn't screw it up like F35.

Where are we here? What port?

Get lost Justin... you don't deserve to lead this country

Nice

I get the added cost associated to keep quality shipwrights trained and the importance of maintaining a indigenous ship program. But when it comes to ships, quantity has a quality all its own. A two ship class is just bad Government Beancounter decision making from the start. 1 Billion spent on designing a ship that was already NATO designed and active in another navy is just incredible You have technically a three ocean navy with two fleets. Two ships give you no backup. The Asterix doesn't count, especially when you insisted it couldn't go into combat zones because it was a commercial design? Which is total BS, used as an excuse not to purchase it outright or allow Davie to build the other three hulls. Please lets go back to calling this an glorified small AOR and not a real JSS. The JSS was supposed to get the Army and its equipment where it needed to be in a short order. We could have bought two Mistral class LDH for peanuts off the French and screwed over Russia over 15 years ago. I hope the first government department eliminated by PP is Public Works procurement

He sinks everything in canada. Get him off there quick. Hopefully we have a captain at the helm, with a spine and backbone with some grit.

Trudeau is a joke and he has destroyed canada.

Looks like a fine & much needed replacement for our long gone x3 supply ships. Now we need x2 more, quickly.

Throw Trudeau off the deck while he's there😂

thank you Stephen Harper

Made in Canada 🇨🇦 🍁 🇨🇦 Made in BC Made by Canadians 🇨🇦 ❤ Future is bright ✨️ for Canada 🇨🇦 🍁 Today, and Tommarrow !!!!

Boats for the Navy? Fantastic! Yet another thing that got done under the Liberal government. Great Job!!!! Here in Alberta we have a brand spanking new pipeline. BC has natural gas shipping ports that are almost up and running. Bombardier stock is close to the highest price it's been in over 20 years. All this has happened after the disastrous Conservative government's and in spite of a global pandemic. RIGHT ON CANADA!!!! THANK YOU TRUDEAU!❤

Keep WOKe out of the navy

What's Trudeau doing there? He hates the Navy as well as the rest of the Forces.

Trudeau and the Liberals trying to take credit for something they did do. I can't even looking at him or listen to what comes out of that sewer he calls a mouth. Pierre Poilievre for PM and congratulations to Seaspan for a job well done and to the RCN on the new ship.

Isn’t it just a fucking cargo ship?

2 more please for a total of 4.

And in total opposition of Trudeau's sinking government ship

why only 2 ships? we shouldve optioned for a third ship as well

Seaspan good to work for so if you get called go

Why isnt it actually a ice breaker? These ships are idiotic they all should of been full certified ice breakers.

Congratulations to Seaspan and all the men and women who built Protecteur! 👍👍

send trudeau out to sea

Why Doesn’t Canada’s Navy Have Nuclear-Powered Vessels? As a nation with the world’s longest coastline and a rapidly changing Arctic, it’s puzzling that Canada’s navy doesn’t include nuclear-powered vessels. This is especially surprising given the strategic importance of the Arctic in defense, shipping, and resource exploration. Nuclear-powered submarines and icebreakers offer unmatched advantages in the harsh Arctic environment. They can operate under thick ice, stay submerged for months, and travel vast distances without refueling. Compare this to diesel-electric vessels, which are limited in range and require frequent refueling-a logistical nightmare in remote, icy waters. Countries like the U.S., Russia, and China understand the value of nuclear-powered fleets, and they’re investing heavily to dominate the Arctic. Canada, on the other hand, relies on diesel-electric submarines and conventionally powered surface vessels, which are ill-equipped for sustained Arctic operations. As the polar ice melts and global powers vie for control of this resource-rich region, Canada’s lack of nuclear-powered vessels feels like a glaring oversight. For a nation with such a vast Arctic presence, shouldn’t we lead by example and invest in a navy capable of protecting it? This isn’t just about national defense-it’s about securing our future in one of the most critical geopolitical arenas of the 21st century. 🇨🇦

Couple of things, firstly I'm proud it's canadian built. But we've been building ships for over 100 years the problems are not skills it's generally government incompetence. The ship is not shown in the water, and it's just an oiler, an armed cargo ship

Good for the Navy for getting a new boat, and good for Canadians building it. But how much did Trudeau pay Seaspan to make this video? There's NFW that Seaspan thought it was a good idea to put Trudeau in the headline. He's the worst Prime Minister we ever had. But when your a complete narcissist like Trudeau it happens.

Will this be a DEI staffed vessel, or does hired by merit ?

Trudeau can get lost.

Poor ship, and the poor people on it. Having Trudeau bless it is a bad omen.

Better keep the asterix around after

Can't wait till we can drop the whole British royalty thing. CN protector to me.(Canadian Navy)

Nice 😊

Lets hope when it is launched it is better Sea Worthiness then the Crap built on the East Coast for Both The Cdn. Navy and Cdn. Coast Guard

So much pandering and simping for natives lol they hate this country i thought unless its getting free stuff then they love it

Sub contracting to China?

0:17 THATS NOT LORNE! MY BOY! :o

Why the fuck does this thing cost 1.5 billion dollars when it was supposed to cost 100 million? Why was it delayed for 8 years?

anyone know when this will be in the Water? 2026- second 2030? Seaspan?

Right nearby, so I've seen this ship getting worked on for months already. (Much to the chagrin of the "Shipyards" residential project nearby, who discovered after purchasing that the area does actually host a shipyard.) It always just seems like they are there forever, but the work does get done and then something else replaces it in the same space. At 0:50, you can see next to it one of the BC Ferries (being worked on too/next?). To the immediate east of this yard, past those trains is a huge grain elevator facility. About 2-3 km west of this facility is the other Seaspan one in North Vancouver, where they just did a naming & launch of some other Canadian Coast guard vessel Naalak Nappaaluk, and they also do navy projects there too.

Very nice looking vessel. You do us proud.

Wow, an engine swap for a nearly 40 YO vessel, impressive. Is this planned for all vessels in class?

I applied to the apprenticeship job application. Nathan Samuel. Welding C ticket on hand.

How come I takes so long to build? Time to get the rag out of your ass . It shouldn’t take more than a year from start to finish to build these ships with todays ship building technology. We made ships both merchant and warships in a few months in WW2, and didn’t have the technology back then like we have today.

Should buy 5 of these but extend the length by one or two hundred feet and add an air search radar and vls sea sparrow for self defence.

Get he rag out out out of your ass Canadian ship builders. Why does it take you so long to build anything, while China Korea and Germany can turn out building ships like sausages. Next time contract it out to the Germans or Koreans, they build better ships in a faster time for much less than these entitled Canadian-ship builders who are always over budget and behind schedule who do sub standard work and are doing nothing but wasting government money and milking that government cash cow . If BC ferries would not build a ship in Canadian shipyards because of the poor quality and behind schedule and over budget like the fast catamaran ferries in the 19990’s and would sooner get ships built in Romania , you know their is a problem with Canadian shipyards. But then Canadian businesses are no longer good at quality and innovation and technology, like Europeans , Koreans or Japanese .

What a joke. Probably gonna be like the Franklin's, full of shit welds, half done and in need of repairs. Seaspan is milking the government for all it's worth and it makes all the trades people look bad by blaming them that it took so long. And the careen is probably gonna sink and never come up soon. More government had outs that seaspan is looking for.

Maybe I Work Here,but not good Now English.

Great job to all 506 brothers and sisters!

Amazing!!! As a Canadian for 68 years this is the first good news I have seen since the beginning of the avro arrow but with a better future
