From Starshell Magazine March 26 (Page 32-34)

Regarding the CDC, RAdm Jason Armstrong explained that as compared to the original concept of a multi-mission corvette, CDC will be more of a light frigate with a focus on range, ice capability, and lethality, built in Canada with Canadian content. The Navy is defining the CDC's requirements, with an industry day planned for early next year.
