The iconic Canada Place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada is receiving an updated tensile roofing system from Birdair, the manufacturer of Canada Place's original sail fabric.

Birdair is serving as roofing sub-contractor for the Vancouver landmark, replacing the structure's current roof with 91,210 square feet of TiO₂-coated PTFE fiberglass fabric membrane that matches the original five-sail design installed in 1985.

The $21-million project will be financed through the Infrastructure Stimulus Fund, a key component of Canada's Economic Action Plan. The Economic Action Plan is aimed at creating jobs and supporting industry, while contributing to the economic health of the country.

A symbol of culture, tourism and economic activity, Canada Place hosts three million visitors per year and generates approximately $1 billion in economic impact annually for the local economy.
