In Quebec, actually, no company is developing Ada software, although Oerlikon Aerospace at Saint-Jean sur Richelieu has already used Ada for their laser's guided missile launcher vehicle. But, by chance, no one through the world is really using this vehicle, so no more development or maintenance might be expected. SNC-IT also were developing a few small programs with Ada, for Canadian defense, but I think they are now using C++ since Ada in no further more a military requirement. CAE Electronique which should be the only one to have interest to use Ada, have upgraded their FORTRAN flight simulator software language with the simple C But who cares, a flight simulator shall never crash... Nevertheless, Montreal has good opportunities for multimedia software developments, and to complete it, an international electronic commerce center is going to be created in the same area. isn't it? The main actual Canadian Ada software development projects are: - the international space station (MDA, Richmond, BC) - Canadian Air Traffic Control System (Raytheon, Richmond, BC) All the others are from the USA, UK, France, etc....
