Halifax Shipyard: Dexter

Halifax Dept: OTTAWA Premier Darrell Dexter is in the national capital pushing for work to start on the $25-billion shipbuilding contract before a boom and bust cycle hits the Halifax Shipyard, according to The Chronicle Herald. New navy combat ships are to be built in Halifax, but since the massive federal contract was awarded to Irving Shipbuilding over a year ago, lagging negotiations and design work have pushed back the start of actual construction and frankly, I think we re all a little impatient because things are taking much longer than was anticipated, Dexter said.
