MIL-Davie Shipbuilding was a historic Canadian shipbuilding company that was located in both Sorel, Quebec (MIL) and Lauzon, Quebec (Davie).
In 1986, Marine Industries Limited merged with Davie Shipbuilding to become MIL-Davie Shipbuilding.[1]
The company declared insolvency and filed for bankruptcy in the early 2000s due to a lack of contracts and was sold to Norwegian interests TECO Maritime.[2]
The Quebec facility, located on the St. Lawrence River across from Quebec City, was closed in 1997 and was re-activated for a contract, delivered in 2009, and renamed Davie Yards Incorporated.
