      We even had an aircraft carrier for a while 🥲

      The Halifax-class is a bit on the small side but not a bad ship. Its replacement will be a massive improvement though (slated for the 2030s)

      Fun History Fact!

      While the Royal Canadian Navy began WW2 with only 13 ships, by the end of the war it had 1,140 surface ships listed as having been in service giving it the third largest navy in the world!

      Yes, but they got rid of the submarines in the West Edmonton Mall.
