ICE NAVIGATION IN CANADIAN WATERS

A very extensive service is available throughout the areas referred to in this publication to provide varying degrees of assistance to ships navigating ice-covered waters. This assistance ranges from radio and radio facsimile broadcasts of up-to-date general information on ice conditions to detailed advice on routing to ships proceeding independently and finally to the provision of icebreaker escort, if available and considered necessary.
