Canada's "Aid to the Allies" includes the honour roll for Port Arthur Shipbuilding Company. James Whalen of Port Arthur, the president of Western Dry-dock and Shipbuilding Company, and John Burnham of Chicago took over control of the Company in November, 1916 at which time it seems the name officially changed to Port Arthur Shipbuilding Company. The shipyard was expected to operate at full capacity to turn out 12 boats that year. The hull numbers of the Port Arthur Shipbuilding Company include 10 Minesweepers for the Royal Navy in 1917-1918 and 4 more after the war in 1919. The Noronic was built at Port Arthur by Western Dry Dock and Shipbuilding Co. in Port Arthur for Northern Navigation in 1913. After the war, they built 7 Cargo Ships for the Canadian Government Merchant Marine.
