I'll give you a couple of examples from the AOPS program. We have a local small business, Bluedrop associates. Bluedrop has a $15-million contract to develop the 3D visualization of the training. They're really a world leader in this, a small company right in Halifax, and they are actually taking some of what they're putting together for the Arctic offshore patrol ship and that technology, and with the people they're hiring, they think they're going to be in a better position for export.
In my notes I talk about a Quebec company, Bronswerk, that is opening up two additional sites in Halifax and has about $80 million's worth of contracts and people. We have a multi-mission rescue boat. Two of them will be on each AOPS. They're going to be built in Rosborough, Nova Scotia, about 20 to 30 kilometres from us—a great small boat company, a great opportunity for them. They're going to build 12 of these multi-role rescue vessels.
We're very much committed. As a matter of fact, our contracts have small and medium-enterprise goals that we have to satisfy for Industry Canada as part of the contracts. We work very closely, particularly with the small and medium-sized enterprises. We have things that are mundane—foundations, doorways, ladders—being manufactured in three or four different machine shops around Nova Scotia. They are good jobs and provide steady work that is keeping people employed. We think it's a good-news story.
