Canada Invests $816M in Great Lakes Maritime Security

Minister Anandasangaree highlighted an $816M investment over seven years to strengthen maritime security and expand the Canadian Coast Guard’s role in monitoring Canada’s waters.

Through new authorities under the Strengthening Canada’s Immigration Systems and Borders Act, the Canadian Coast Guard is enhancing its role in protecting Canada’s waters, including using its vessels, helicopters, sensors, operational centres, and shore-based assets to collect, receive, share, and analyze information for improved security and sovereignty.

Key initiatives to enhance the Canadian Coast Guard’s maritime domain awareness and visibility throughout the Great Lakes include:

  • A 24/7 Marine Security Operations Centre in Niagara. This will deliver continuous monitoring and real-time data integration, enhancing situational awareness and enabling faster, coordinated enforcement across the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence region. enforcement actions across the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence region.
  • Up to 11 radar sites at strategic locations along the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence to address existing gaps in maritime domain awareness and improve monitoring in key areas.

Autonomous systems, including drones, are enhancing the Canadian Coast Guard’s ability to monitor and respond across Canada’s waters by extending operational reach from both land and vessels. Equipped with advanced sensors and cameras, these uncrewed aerial and subsurface platforms improve situational awareness, reduce operational costs and risks to personnel, and support real-time information sharing with federal partners–particularly in remote and Arctic regions.

In parallel, the Canadian Coast Guard is investing in new capabilities to enhance how it collects and shares information on marine activity. This includes the installation of advanced camera systems on Coast Guard ships and helicopters, improving the quality of data collected and enabling the rapid dissemination of actionable maritime domain awareness to defence, law enforcement, and security partners.

MDA Space and CSA Sign $688M Satellite Contract

MDA Space awarded a contract by the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) to supply an advanced, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite that will operate with the RADARSAT Constellation Mission (RCM) satellites. In addition to the space segment, the contract provides for launch and the enhancement of the satellite ground control, security and data management systems. This follows an initial $44.7M contract to procure and deliver long lead parts awarded in December of last year.

MDA Space will design, build, test, launch and commission the next-generation sovereign satellite to be added to the existing Earth observation constellation.

A follow-on order to RCM which was built and launched by MDA Space in 2019, the new SAR satellite will be based on MDA CHORUSTM, the company’s new fourth generation of Earth observation technologies and capabilities. Now in its final integration phase before it is expected to launch late this year, MDA CHORUSTM will include day-night, all-weather broad surveillance area data across the globe that supports a wide range of critical services for Canadians. The RCM replenishment satellite is part of the Government of Canada’s $1,012 billion RADARSAT+ portfolio of activities, announced by the Government of Canada in October 2023, which will ensure the continuity of the RCM mission and bolster sovereign Earth observation capabilities.

“Every day, Canada and Canadians rely on critical Earth observation technology and data to improve maritime safety, surveil the Arctic, respond to natural disasters and monitor the environment,” said Mike Greenley, CEO of MDA Space. “By leveraging our significant commercial investments in MDA CHORUSTM, Canadians will benefit from world leading technologies developed right here in Canada to meet those vital needs.”

The satellite will be assembled, integrated and tested at the MDA Space facility in Montréal. The contract will be added to MDA Space’s backlog in the second quarter of fiscal 2026.

Why do I need to explain anything? That has nothing to do with your ignorance of underground gas storage, then your being a coward and running away, then your dragging it back up here because you wanted to change the subject from your ignorant comments on Iran... to once again proving you are a dishonest, cowardly POS in lying about it, making up more crap, and now playing this dumb game. 

 

Why do you need to explain anything when you bring up something that has absolutely nothing to do with the topic?   The fact is YOU are completely ignorant of the topic and had no idea that the random statements you were making had nothing to do with  the topic. And then your ignorance was exposed you made bogus strawman arguments.
 

Nobody is talking about “underground storage” gas except you because it’s not at all relevant to the topic of managing peak hour electricity demand and somehow you twist that into a false claim that I didn’t know gas is stored at various points in its lifecycle. All of this ridiculousness just because you want to save the other clown from his hilarious “barrels of gasoline” statement

You are such an odd person. Are you off your medication or something?

You literally just got finished pathetically trying to mock me so you can yet again run like the cowardly lying POS you are from your lies and stupidity, saying I am desperate for your attention, and then moments later start responding to another comment of mine. 

ROFL

And you were the pathetic one who brought this up in this discussion, to distract from your ignorant comments on Iran.

Not a pilot but why not buy enough for the snowbirds as well....

We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.

Because we don’t want to spare the pilots and maintenance personnel, it’s almost 90 people dedicated to that dog and pony show, mostly in highly specialized trades that already have some of the worst shortages in CAF  

 RCAF doesn’t want to spare the people and resources for the snowbirds, pilots don’t want to volunteer for the snowbirds. This whole ‘taking a break for the next 10 years or so’ gambit is just a polite way of canceling them without officially canceling them. 
 

Oh and I should mention SUB ANNOUNCEMENT IS JUST DAYS AWAY!  SO MANY YEARS AHEAD OF SCHEDULE!!! And with it a flood of transformative industrial economic offset benefits across the country in numerous industries coast to coast to coast.
