From Humble Beginnings to Global Prominence

The narrative begins in 1910, when the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) was established with a modest flotilla of borrowed and second-hand vessels. Over the next few decades, the RCN would play a crucial role in both world wars, honing its skills in anti-submarine warfare and convoy protection.

Following the Second World War, the RCN expanded rapidly, embracing technological advancements and playing a leading role in NATO exercises and peacekeeping missions.
