Could Canadian orders have saved Thames Ironworks?

Could Canadian naval orders in 1911 have saved Thames Ironworks and Shipbuilding Company?

Small ships might have delayed closure briefly, while larger orders could plausibly have sustained the yard until the First World War.

Keeping a yard alive temporarily required less work than securing it a durable workload. A pair of destroyers or similarly small ships might have extended operations for only about a year. Larger Canadian orders could have supported the company for four or five years. That longer bridge might have kept Thames Ironworks open until First World War demand transformed the market.
