CCGS Terry Fox
CCGS ''Terry Fox'' is a Canadian Coast Guard Heavy Gulf (and Arctic) icebreaker.
Named after the late cancer research activist Terry Fox, the vessel was built in 1983 as MV ''Terry Fox'' by Burrard Yarrows Corporation in Vancouver, British Columbia. ''Terry Fox'', along with her sister ship MV ''Arctic Kalvik'' supported Gulf Canada's operations in the Beaufort Sea during the 1980s. Not limited to escorting tankers through ice, these multipurpose ships were designed to act as heavy tugs and supply vessels to support offshore oil rig platforms in a hostile environment.
== History ==
''Terry Fox'' was acquired by the Canadian Coast Guard in 1992 and commissioned as CCGS ''Terry Fox''. Classed as a "Heavy Gulf Icebreaker" by the coast guard, she is stationed at CCG Base Southside in St. John's, Newfoundland and operates in the Gulf of St. Lawrence during the winter ice season and in Canada's eastern Arctic during the summer shipping season, assisting in escorting the annual Arctic summer sealift to coastal communities. The vessel was transferred from the CCG Base Dartmouth in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia on April 1, 2008.
''Terry Fox'' is scheduled for decommissioning in 2020.〔(Design of the CCG Polar icebreaker ). Dan McGeer, STX Canada Marine, 2013.〕
