The cost of three second-hand icebreakers that the federal Liberal government is buying from Quebec shipyard Chantier Davie is inching closer to the $1-billion mark as Ottawa keeps quietly adding money to the controversial deal.

Canada's cutthroat shipbuilding industry saw a surprise alliance on Tuesday, June 9, 2020, as two competing yards announced plans to team up to win a multibillion-dollar contract to build a new polar icebreaker for the Canadian Coast Guard.

There is a new lead in the case of the missing icebreaker, though exactly how the story will end remains to be seen.

The federal government has officially launched a search for a third shipyard to join a massive naval procurement process.

Quebec's Davie shipyard is in line to receive a contract for the construction of two East Coast ferries, the federal government announced on Friday, May 17, 2019.
