Paul Jamer, President of Helm Management Services, will share a presentation on the current vessel life extension for the CCG Terry Fox.

The CCG Terry Fox vessel life extension project is being conducted by Ontario Shipyards in St Catherines and the vessel has been in the yard since April 2024.  A large multitasked icebreaker, the ship is capable of sustained operations in the Arctic archipelago over the summer months and icebreaking escort operations in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and East Coast of Newfoundland in the winter. The vessel also assists in various CCG programs including Arctic scientific missions.
