Icebreaking near Owen Sound in Ontario
Owen Sound, ON – The Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) icebreaker CCGS Griffon is currently breaking ice near Owen Sound, Ontario. The Griffon is working to keep the shipping channel open for vessels travelling to and from the Port of Owen Sound.
The Griffon is one of the CCG’s two operational icebreakers in the Great Lakes. The other icebreaker, the CCGS Samuel Risley, is currently working in the St. Lawrence River.
The CCG’s icebreaking operations are essential to maintaining safe and efficient navigation in Canadian waters. The icebreakers help to keep shipping lanes open during the winter months, when ice can pose a hazard to vessels.
The Griffon is expected to continue icebreaking operations in the Owen Sound area for the next few days. The CCG will continue to monitor ice conditions and adjust its operations as necessary.
