But not since they started building ships.  They started building ships in 2015, and the first will hit the water this year.  They are currently building either 4 or 5 ships.

Well, don't look now but...

Canada’s multibillion-dollar project to buy a replacement for its frigates is so poorly structured that one of the world’s largest shipbuilders has warned the Liberal government it won’t bid unless changes are made.

A number of other ship designers are also considering backing out because of the problems plaguing the project to spend more than $26 billion on a new fleet of Canadian Surface Combatants.
