I am afraid you are correct. The Canadian ship building industry, assuming one still exists, will have missed the boat (sorry I couldn't resist).

The Canadian ship-building industry, such as it is, has never had the capacity to build ship of the size needed at the speed that would make them economically viable in the modern world. Not that I consider it a huge loss.
