A warm welcome to our Shipmates from the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG). The Royal Canadian Navy and CCG have always worked closely together; this decision will enable us to build on that already strong foundation and further enhance Canadian security and defence.

Grateful to have written a small but impactful chapter in this story, serving alongside some of the most resilient and diverse group of Canadian Shipmates. 🙏 to those who choose to serve, especially those who have transited oceans; quite different than in an FFH, DDG, or AOR! BZ
