The AIAC has embarked on another
milestone year in 2012. Last year, the
celebrations of the AIAC’s 50th anniversary
highlighted the outstanding achievements
of the aerospace industry in Canada to
date. Today, Canadian aerospace has a
robust nation­wide presence, creating jobs
and fuelling our economy. As we look to
the future, it is clear that the industry and

Message from the Chairman


This is an exciting time to be part of the
Canadian aerospace industry. Despite global
economic pressures, industry forecasts call
for growth and increased prosperity. Demand
for air travel is on the rise and shows no
sign of faltering. Cutting-edge technology
continues to promise better, faster, more
efficient capabilities in the civil and military
aircraft sectors, as well as for the space
industry. Untapped markets are opening up
and new opportunities are arising every day.

If we are to take advantage of these opportunities, competitiveness on the


world stage must be our top priority. The Canadian aerospace industry has the
knowledge, skill and experience to meet the needs created by growing global
demand. In order to be competitive abroad, however, we must develop an envi-
ronment at home that our industry can rely on. A supportive environment where
research and development are a priority, where business and entrepreneurship
are promoted, and where knowledge-based training is prized, cannot be fostered
by individual enterprises alone. Such an environment is only created through a
commitment, on the part of researchers, industry and government, to coopera-
tion and partnership.

This spirit of cooperation is evident in the review of policies and programs


related to aerospace that was announced by the government in February 2012.
Together, representatives of industry, academia, government, labour organiza-
tions and other stakeholder groups from across Canada have formed working
groups to address issues critical to the growth and competitiveness of Canada’s
aerospace industry on the world stage. These issues, which include research
and development, training and recruitment, and the development and promotion
of global market access, were highlighted in Deloitte’s 2010 report to the AIAC
on the future of the Canadian aerospace industry as items which will be funda-
mental to ensuring our competitiveness in years to come.

AIAC 2012–2013 Guide to Canada’s Aerospace Industry 11


The Aerospace Review is therefore an important means of developing
a foundation of policies and programs that our industry can rely on moving
forward. It is our hope that this foundation, having been created through a
process of collaboration, will also cement a framework of mutual understanding
and cooperation between all of the parties and players involved in building the
success of this important industry.

Our industry is well placed to face these challenges and opportunities. We have
a broad national base, with operations in all regions and provinces. We also have
a strong association providing representation and advocacy at the federal level.
The AIAC is a vital part of the industry’s continued development. In its unique
role as a broad-based, policy-oriented representative of the industry, the AIAC is
playing a leadership role in the ongoing dialogue about the future of the industry.

For over 50 years, the AIAC has ably represented the members of the aerospace
industry in Canada, and for over 25 years, the AIAC’s Guide to Canada’s Aerospace
Industry has highlighted the services, innovation and technology produced by
aerospace companies across the country. The companies and services show-
cased here are the backbone of the industry as it exists today, displaying its
depth and national scope. They are the best Canada has to offer. As we consider
the future of the industry, there is no better place to start than with the companies
in these pages.

Message from the Honourable
Christian Paradis, Minister of Industry
and Minister of State (Agriculture)
On behalf of the Government of Canada, I would like
to commend the Aerospace Industries Association of
Canada (AIAC) for its role in championing the aeronau-
tics and space industries.

As you embark on another half-century supporting


the next generation of technologies, products and
services, our government is committed to helping
your members succeed.

By investing in R&D through the Strategic Aerospace


and Defence Initiative, encouraging industrial and
academic partnerships, and leveraging large-scale
procurements under the Industrial and Regional
Benefits Policy, our government is setting the condi-
tions for Canadian companies to remain competitive
in the global aerospace industry.

In the coming years, the global aerospace market is expected to experience considerable
growth. With emerging markets and the rising demand for more fuel-efficient aircraft,
there are significant opportunities in the commercial market for our Canadian industry.

In recognition of this, it is important that we – governments and industry associations


– equip Canadian businesses to capitalize on these opportunities and conquer future
challenges. That is why our government initiated the Review of Aerospace and Space
Programs and Policies. Through a consultative process involving the AIAC, among other
stakeholders, the Review will examine how to ensure the long-term competitiveness
of Canada’s aerospace industry.

As Minister of Industry, I am strongly committed to the aeronautics and space industries


and look forward to working with all of you in 2012 and beyond.

Sincerely,

Christian Paradis
Minister of Industry and Minister of State (Agriculture)

Alternative Financing Solutions:


In addition to direct financing, EDC also provides
a number of alternative financing solutions to help
Canada’s aerospace exporters compete inter-
nationally, including guarantees, lines of credit,
equipment financing and note purchase facilities.

Accounts Receivables Insurance:


EDC also provides a significant amount of
support to the aerospace sector through its
Accounts Receivables Insurance (ARI) program.
ARI insures a company’s receivables, providing
certainty that the money owed to them by
their customers will be converted into cash by
their due date. Given that receivables are often
a considerable asset on a company’s balance
sheet, EDC’s ARI makes it easier for a financial
institution to lend against that asset.

Bonding:
More and more buyers are asking for bonds
to ensure suppliers can meet their obligations.
EDC offers a suite of products that can work
with your bank to free up your working capital
and ensure you are protected.
EDC is a Crown corporation wholly owned
by the Government of Canada. The corporation
is financially self-sustaining and operates on
Who We Are commercial principles.
Export Development Canada is Canada’s export
credit agency. EDC offers innovative commer-
cial solutions to help Canadian exporters and
investors expand their international business.
EDC’s knowledge and partnerships are used by
more than 8,300 Canadian companies and their
global customers number up to 200 markets
worldwide each year. Export Development
Our support to the sector has continued to
grow over the past 20 years. In 2011, EDC’s Canada
