The Canadian Coast Guard provides seasonal and temporary accommodations for seasonal Inshore Rescue Boat crews and other crew members, as needed. Crew accommodations are located near our 9 coastal Inshore Rescue Boat stations or other areas as required in Atlantic Canada. In some areas, there is also a need for dock access or space to dock small vessels.

The Department of National Defence and the Canadian Coast Guard Atlantic Region are seeking interested parties who can provide seasonal and temporary housing accommodations for our employees in Atlantic Canada.
