| Canadian Allis-Chalmers, Fort Erie ON | |||||||
| Canadian Allis-Chalmers was a subsidiary of Canadian General Electric Company and was primarily concerned with the manufacture of electrical machinery and equipment. Their Fort Erie plant was huge and faced the water, so they built an emergency shipyard there. It's impossible to find clear identification of the site: it seems to have been where Miller's Creek Marina was until recently. See it from the air on Google here. | |||||||

| Foundation Company, Victoria BC | |||||||
| The Foundation Company's West Coast shipyard was located at Point Hope, on the western shore of Victoria's upper harbour, on a site that had been a shipyard, off and on, since 1873. Originally known as Colling and Cook's Ways, it became Clark and Turpel's Shipyard in 1888 and had several names thereafter. It was leased to the Foundation Company in 1917 and produced the 25 wooden cargo ships listed below. In 1928, the yard was sold to Captain W. E. Gardner and in 1938 it was taken over by Island Tug & Barge and Victoria Tug, which re-named it Point Hope Shipyards. It is now a repair yard called Point Hope Marine and belongs to Seaspan.
